Default Sharpie action

Looks great! How do the sharpies hold up after racing? Does the paint stick after you spray over it? What type of sharpies?

These are oil based and they actually hold up extremely well! here is my old Agama with another sharpie body i did. I beat the heck out of it and when cleaned, it looks like new.

What a unique idea. Lovin' it!

My buddy is going to love this one.


For the absolute best paint markers, COUGHfffrom my waaaaay old graffiti days, I'd suggest Uni Paint Markers, though I've never used Sharpie's paint markers. Uni Markers can be bought for far less than the sharpies and the paint is one of the best and waaaay back in those days, the Uni ink was the only one that held firm on NY subway trains. LOL All but one other would be absorbed by the then new silver paint that would consume any paint that was placed upon it. :angel:

Kids… being a grown up now, listen when I tell you defacing public and private property is just all sorts of wrong.

I didn't pay nearly as much as this one posted above! I think I bought a 3 pack for like 9-10 bucks, they actually last a lot too, I painted the whole body for about 13 bucks with the backing white paint included. It's a cheap way to really have unique, custom look that no-one else will have. I get more looks and people coming to check out the body at the track for $13 bucks that guys who spend 50 bucks getting their stuff painted, or wrapped.

yea a little more digging online I see a 5 pack can be had for $12
Paint markers can also be used for custom T-shirts.
Anyone airbrushiing can do t-shirts too.
Match your shirt to your car.
