DIY Pinstriping...

Wondering whether anybody here has done their own pinstriping around lugwork and would care to offer any words of advice or warning? Since pinstriping is done by hand anyhow, I am thinking I should be able to do it myself. Is it a case of "don't do it!" or have you gotten good results?

I am a painter, but have no experience with this kind of painting and the materials it requires. I have read that One Shot enamel is the stuff to use, and was also told that there is a pen-like tool that can be filled with the paint like a magic marker, which offers more control than using a paintbrush. Any idea what tool this is? I have not been able to find it. In case it matters, my frame will be powder-coated.

Thanks in advance for any advice. Would love to see photos of DIY pinstriping as well!
