Lowrider Tape Pattern Design | El Camino Custom Paint (Part 2)

In Part 2 of this Lowrider tape pattern series, I continue working on the El Camino custom paint layout, focusing on mirroring designs, refining symmetry, and building interior patterns. I break down how to: Establish a clean center line Mirror tape patterns side-to-side Check line width consistency Choose the right tape thickness for interior designs Avoid common mistakes that throw off classic lowrider paint flow I also share tools and techniques used by traditional lowrider painters, many of which I learned from Armando Flores, and explain how to adjust, reshape, or completely rethink a pattern without committing too early. This video is about control, balance, and flow — key elements in clean custom paint work. 00:00 Recap & starting Part 2 00:23 Laying out the center line 00:56 Building from the center outward 01:40 Mirroring tape patterns by eye 02:25 Checking symmetry & lighting tips 02:37 Using a compass to match tape width 03:56 Measuring consistency across sections 04:26 Interior pattern placement 05:01 Why thick tape kills interior flow 05:29 Switching to thinner tape lines 06:10 Correcting and reworking designs 06:50 Pattern starting to take shape 07:01 Avoiding common pattern mistakes 08:12 Adjusting tape without damaging paint 08:52 Fine-tuning curves with specialty tools 09:48 Reshaping patterns on the fly 10:16 Final adjustments & pattern evolution Store: https://scaleriders.com/ Podcast: https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/sc...
