Pinstripin’ ain’t easy – and the ones who do it right know exactly why. Control, feel, balance… it all comes down to the brush. The Alien Deathhawk, built with @hansondidit , comes straight from real-world use, real feedback, and the kind of refinement only artists can demand.
Using European dressed blue squirrel hair, this brush brings more body and less droop when fully loaded. The extended 1¾″–2″ hair length and added pull in the build create a sharper taper – clean snap, steady flow, total control from start to finish.
Available in sizes 5/0, 3/0, and 2/0.

I didn’t set out to reinvent the wheel – I just wanted brushes that actually work. Painting finks, eyeballs, monsters, or anything in between? These make detail work faster, cleaner, and way more satisfying.
The set – Mini, Lil’Bit, Slim, Skinny, Lil’Bit More, and Flat Top – features thicker handles for a better grip. Small sizes use soft synthetic bristles for delicate work; larger flats and outliners use golden synthetic for precision and durability. They flow paint like a dream, hold their shape, and are easy to care for.
Lines, shading, blending, sharp detail – these brushes handle it all across enamels, acrylics, oils, and more. Tough, reliable, and stamped with brass knuckles, they’re not just tools – they’re an upgrade.

Sleek black handles. Silver ferrules. Built for one thing: signing your name like you mean it.
After dialing in his go-to synthetic liner and scroller, Von Dago wanted a brush made specifically for the final touch — the autograph. Not just any mark, but a clean, consistent stamp that says, “Yeah, I striped that.” So we took that same trusted synthetic filament and built the Autograph series around it.
The Autograph I runs a tight 3/4″ out from the ferrule. The Autograph II comes in at 5/8″. Both are designed to lay your name down clean on canvas, cars, panels, helmets — wherever the lines end, your signature follows.
As Von Dago puts it: no guesswork. Just absolute, no-stress, no-hassle consistency.
Made by Mack. Trusted by the ones who know.

This didn’t happen overnight. After testing every blend imaginable – natural, mixed, full synthetic – we finally found the perfect snap, pull, and flow. When diehard natural-hair guy @vondago_proseries gave the nod to our full synthetic, we knew we’d created something special.
Our Synthetic Sable loads paint like a sponge and lays it down smooth and steady, with a controlled release that feels natural in your hand. Available in sizes 00–1, it’s built for the extreme individuals who chase perfection one clean line at a time. Made by Mack. Trusted by those who know.

The idea for a next-level liner and scroller/pinstriper brush bounced around the shop for months before it became reality. We tested every blend imaginable – natural, mixed, full synthetic – chasing the perfect snap, pull, and flow.
Then @vondago_proseries gave the nod to our Synthetic Sable. This isn’t your everyday synthetic – it loads paint like a sponge and delivers it with smooth, controlled precision every time. Even a diehard natural-hair fan like Von Dago couldn’t resist.
The Von Dago Saber Liner comes in sizes 4/0 through 12, built for pinstripers who demand nothing less than perfection with every stroke.

NEW! After a year of trial-and-error experiments – and with several well-known sign friends serving as field testers – I finally landed on what, in our opinion, is the best long-haired lettering quill on the market today.
Built with the finest imported European blue squirrel hair combined with the newest and softest synthetic hair ever developed, we now offer you the “PinApple Express.”
Please wash the brush with warm water and mild hand soap before first use. After cleaning, we strongly recommend letting the brush pre-soak in oil for three days before initial use – this step makes a huge difference in how the brush performs.

The Kelly-Mack Sword Striper! Striping isn’t just a skill—it’s a legacy. Tom Kelly’s grandfather, O.Z. Crozier (aka “The Baron”) of Baron Roth & Kelly, started striping wagons and buggies for the Studebaker Bros. in the early 1900s, and then spent 25+ years at Ford Motor Company perfecting his craft.
For many years, Tom trusted only the #1 and #2 Mack Sword Stripers from Andrew Mack Brush Co. They’re precise, reliable, and perfect for everything from classic car lines to bold modern designs.
Available individually (#1 & #2) or as a set—your choice, your stripes.

I didn’t set out to reinvent the wheel; I just wanted a brush set that works.
Perfect for finks, eyeballs, monsters, or anything in between, these brushes make detail work faster, cleaner, and way more satisfying.
The set includes Mini, Lil’Bit, Slim, Skinny, Lil’Bit More, and Flat Top – built with thicker handles for better control. Soft synthetics for fine work, golden synthetics for precision, and all of them lay down paint smooth and hold their shape like champs.
Spring’s here – time to level up your setup and start laying down cleaner lines.
