Just repainted my track, and looking for a pinstriping tool. I see Beugler is the professional pinstriping option, but it seems pricey to pay more than $100 for a tool I may only use once. I used to have a simple striping tool, but the quality wasn't the best. Ideas?

Micro-Mark used to sell a cheap pin-striping tool.

I checked Harbor Freight's web site and they don't seem to have theirs any more.
I did find this onePosted Image
which is sold here http://www.constanti...g-Tool-Kit.HTML

For $20 it might be worth a try.

I have one that I don't need, PM me. The Engleman at Need for Speed was done with it.
Ralph Griffin gave it to me. I will give it to you, just pay shipping which will be cheap.

Dick Blick Art Supply was selling the low cost one last I knew. Change out the glass paint bottle for a plastic tire goo one so that you can pressure feed the paint instead of waiting for the bubble to gravity feed the paint.

I used the acrylic marker pens from Hobby Lobby.  Wait till you get a coupon or there is a sale and grab a set.
