1961 Raleigh superbe (Helio)

I'm struggling with the gold lining part. Might need the proper paint. Dunno if it's also the paint lining tool that's causing problems as it bleeds out. Anyone have any experience with using lining tools? I just have a marshaltown 3/64 of an inch pinstriping wheel

Or I suppose I should ask if there's any other methods to do it and get it nice and straight. Other than using a paint liner wheel?

best you can do there, and there is no other way, is simply practice! i use to do it for mazda, make use the frame is 100% free of any contaminent, dust, debris. you need a fairly thick mix as well. if all else fails, argos cycles in bristol.

Signwriters paint? I don't have the beugler lining tool I just have a Marshaltown Esbee one. I want a 1mm line and the paint just overflows way bigger.

I was considering masking off the 1mm lines. giving myself alot more work but hopefully giving nice clean lines? i have tape thats a bit flexible which i will test out
