Painting tire letters?
Anyone done this before? I'm having some trouble for lack of a better phrase. I already bought & mounted a staggered setup of Toyo Proxes, however I have another set at my house i've been messing around with trying to get the best solution for painting the letters. So far i've tried:
Latex based outdoor paint
Oil based outdoor paint
Tire paint pen(s)
Oil based Sharpie paint pen
Gloss white spray paint with primer
Now out of all these, which are the 5 things I read online, the spray paint is the only one that flexes with the rubber without cracking, however it discolors to a cream white-ish color. This is after leaving them in the sun for maybe 3 days. We've had no rain or bad weather other than sunlight hitting the paint to discolor it. It leads me to believe its the rubber its self that discolors it in some way. Anyone have some feedback on this? I was going to try to spray prime -> paint -> clear next to see if that protects the paint top and bottom, but I figured i'd see if anyone else has had success with this.
