They must be really sticky- you got your cob to stick to the roof (or ceiling as us Brits know it!)
I wish we could legally run billboards here

white fabric pencil. 3 coats worked just fine. waterproof to boot.

That's an excellent idea to use fabric pencil. How is it holding up? Do you think it will crack or peel prematurely? I may have to do the same as it looks great (other than causing your car to turn upside down!).

Mark, there is nothing to stop your running Billboards here in the UK. I've been running them for years. The MOT only requires that the tyres are suitable for the vehicle and have the necessary tread depth.

michaels craft store. 4 pens @3 bucks a pen. no cracking, no peeling. just really close to the original feel. very happy with it. took about 3 hours total-being very careful. getting the car upside down was the hardest part.

No dumb ask, those pencils are banned in Florida. Just kidding , try a fabric store . i would think wal-mart or target would even have them
