wordpress if is page

I have a custom WordPress theme on which I display different backgrounds for different pages.

E.g.

    <body <?php body_class(); ?>>
    <?php if (is_page('about')) : ?>
        <body style="background:url(background-stripe.gif); background-repeat: no-repeat;">
    <?php endif; ?>

I am currently trying to get this applied to a custom post type (single) page as well , what is the best method to have that achieved?

is_singular is the conditional tag for specific post types. You could use that if you don't want different backgrounds for all single posts/different post types.

Having said that, I would use body_class as already suggested.

Instead of these conditions I'd use the body_class() function on the body tag. It adds classes for custom types which should suffice, but if you need more you can add a class with a filter in your page template. Then you only have to set the background in the CSS file with body.custom-page or something like that.
