From Down Under to Global Canvas: The Life of a Pinstriping Pro

This week on the West of Tulsa Show, we welcome one of the most talented artists/custom automotive painters on the planet, Mat Egan from down under (Yes, Australia!) We ask the most important questions, how do pinstripers get their lines so perfect and do paint customizers do exactly what the client wants or do they take liberties to do what the car wants or needs? Mat describes how he quickly grew from custom painting BMX bikes to race cars. Plus, hot rodder Steve Faist joins us in studio because he's pretty damn good at painting too.. Don't miss this fun, artistic episode and please Subscribe if you haven't already done so.
