Tyre paint?

[Maha]

Is there such a product that can applied to the lettering/words on the sidewall of tyres...
Paint obviously, but what paint would adhere to rubber?...is it a case of just go and ask at a paint shop?
Not looking to go overboard and paint every word/digit...just a small amount.
Some like to use rim tape to enhance the look of that area of thier bike.

Yep, you can get tyre paint pens from most automotive stores

Make sure you go for a ride along the motorway - straight after you paint your tires. Dont wait. Makes the paint dry better....

Years back you could get a special tyre crayon (for want of another word).

I bought quite a good one from this guy on TradeMe: http://www.trademe.co.nz/Members/Lis...member=2201009

Works really well, sticks like shit on a shoe to the sidewall. I find that it lasts about 6 months then starts to crack a bit through sidewall flex, super easy to touch up though.
After I did it I actually had a few people ask where I got the Bridgestone BT45 "specials" from...
