I like the careless wisdom im picking up just listening to it.

 

Priceless!

Thanks!

 

"Same hole in the ground!" LOL

That was a kick. Thanks for posting.

 

I can't stripe nor would I ever try but I sure enjoyed the videos. Thanks for posting.

 

I had no idea that pinstriping started just by covering scratches!!!

The Rock

 

Watched all eight 15 min. videos. The best saterday night I had in a while.

I wrote down all that I could.

My favorite:

"Rust-Oleum has fish oil in it. You haven't seen any rusty fish have you?"

Thanks for sharing

 

I watched all of them too...thanks for posting!!

 

Cool - thanks for the heads-up !

 

Great videos, thanks for the link. Grinder scratches, I'll never forget that and forever be looking for them in crappy paint jobs now...

 

some great wisdom about working.
The best was his comparison between dopers / people who do drugs and people who drink. People drink and then say, that was a stupid thing I did. People who do drugs still think it was good the next day, and that all is good.
So funny but true.

 

Yeah, the dopers vs. boozers comment is funny but true. The most surprising thing to me is how he invented pinstriping just fixing scrates with regular lacquer and brushes... And found out later that striping was so much easier with sign painter´s brushes and 1 shot enamel!

Haha, way cool.
Thanks for sharing this great piece of history...

 

Thank you. Von Dutch is quite the character...I had a few laughs.

 

Thank you for finding this. Great conversation and a great piece of history.

 

Really a fantastic interview. Great demonstrations of his art. Thanks for putting up the link.

Well put, ParkinsonSpeed!

This thread gets buried fast.
If you like it, bump it up for others to see.

 

Watched the entire thing!
Fascinating to me.
My great grandfather was a sign/ornamental painter. Never knew him but heard plenty stories. I have a couple of his signs he did - dating to probably the 1920's.
