mornin', Ron. Gary, Gary, Gary. His wife took about 6 hours to paint the letters, about once a year. When I bought the car (March 04) they looked great. She had done them in the winter, so they were still 'new looking'. They looked great all thru the summer, fall, but started cracking in the winter. I think the cold weather doesn't help. Anyway, we've had many discussions about the paint pens, etc., and I actually painted one letter, the G, on one tire. It cracked the first time it drove out the driveway, like 10 feet. He swears by this paint at Michael's. I've got to email or call him to find out. Something about 'Titanium white' something or other. He posted it in a thread about lettering tires a couple of months ago, so I might just have to dig that thread up, if I can't get hold of him. Susan used a brush to apply it, let it dry, did another coat, or two. Any 'going out of the lines' is taken care of by outlining with a black sharpie when you're done. We'll see. I'll take pictures.
My car is neglected right now. Too much to do in May. Not a good month for me to get things done, for me. Kids stuff takes priority. gotta go!
