| Tyre Letter Painting |
I’ve wanted to give this a go for ages, so I used the fiesta as an experiment.
First of all don’t buy one of those pens for £5 to do the job. The tip is like
a thick felt tip pen, and you cannot paint very accurately and it’ll look bad.
Instead get a bottle of white acrylic paint from an art shop/stationers (cost
50p) and some small brushes.
 It took me about 1.5/2 hours to do each tyre.

 Make sure the tyre is dry, and wipe off any mud/dirt.
Start painting!
It will need at least 5-6 coats
Reapply the layers when they are touch dry
|
| Tip – I tried this on the spare which was fitted with a Pirelli and it just
looked wrong. I think it suits smaller, less square lettering and a good brand
on all tyres if possible! |
