Bug Deflector and testor pens?

[jmvaughan1]

I have a bug deflector with the Avalanche word on it and I want it to stand out. If I used one of the testor paint pens on it would it work.

It should, may also want to use sharpies they seem to hold up pretty well oudoors

The pens work well on the cladding, I would think they would work better on the hard plastic. Be sure and clean it first with a good wax remover/cleaner available where ever they sell automotive paint (I use the 3M brand).

I did mine this past Sunday. So far it is holding up well. I did the clading a while ago and have to tuch it up every so often, but the paint seems to hold up well. We'll see

Here's mine.
I used a Pilot Silver Marker (extra fine point.)
It is a paint pen made by Pilot.
Comes in silver or gold.
I bought the pen at an art supply store.

I take it everyone painted the indentions and not the big part of the lettering? Thanks for the help.

I painted the whole letter as well using the GM white touch-up paint paint pen\brush (2 in 1 bottle). It took 2 coats and came out great . I'll post some pics later.

they are not stencils, the bug shields come from GM with the words already in the shield .
