Pablo,

Changing the pinstripes is not going to be easy; especially black to gold. Use pinstriping and lettering enamel. It will need to be reduced to use it properly in most cases. There are a few methods for applying the paint; none of them are easy, since you're working around the lugs. Maybe you should find a local bicycle painter who can do the job for you.

Hello CR members,

I recently got a lugged frame, but I change my mind about the detailing line in the lugs edges, currently is black and want to change it gold.

Returning it to the builder is not practical and local car paint shops havenâ\u20ac\u2122t been very helpful.

Is it possible to do it with a paintbrush?? In such a caseâ\u20ac¦ what sort of paint should I look for???

Any advice would be appreciated.
