How to paint martini stripes?
Can anyone tell me the dimensions (and colors) of all the stripes that comprise a Martini Racing stripe? My wife has agreed to let me paint the walls of my man cave with it, and I better get it done before she changes her mind! At worst I can print one out and try to scale it up, but if anyone has done this it will be easier with the space between the stripes. Thanks.

Make it easy on yourself. Talk to "Joe Bob" at No Bad Days graphics.

Can't read the numbers, do you have a higher resolution where the proportions are legible???

I think we have two things going on here. If you want paint for the garage, then the labels on gallon paint cans are the answer. If you want stripes - I agree you need some clearer definition - but probably you also need vinyl stripes. Joe Bob or Carbone are both going to lead you in the right direction. Please post the results

 I thought this thread might be going in a different direction. I was assuming it was for a car. Just for kicks, I love this pic I took of the baby RSR 2.1 #9 car. The stripes are actually hand painted! You can see the brush marks and variation in stripe thickness. I actually did a very detailed painting of this car and always feel like people may think I did a poor job at the stripes because of the variations in width. Nope. Its that way in person! Very cool unrestored car. So rough.
