I was just wondering if anyone knews what type of paint that comes in the tires pens you buy to paint tires. I have bought the pens before and they work awesome. But for $8 a pop I would just like to know what type of paint it is and pick some up from a hardware store. I have tried regular latex paint but it just peels off in no time. I know the paint in the pens are some type of latex paint.

 

It is an acryilic water based type of paint hard to find.

Okay thanks.

 

lacquer types of paint work well . alot of the pens are laquer based it is more perment if that is what u are looking for . contact ur local autobody supply shop and they will steer u in a good direction

 

Okay thanks

 

None of it is permanent. Cheap option is to go to a craft supply place; you can get colours to match your bike if you desire.

Cheers
