Review on ๐Ÿ–๏ธ Tire Ink: Permanent and Waterproof Paint Pen for Car Tires - Carwash Safe (1 Pen, Orange) by Bill Howard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great product you have to know how to use it very easy

Hello to be honest I don't know all the negative reviews about you to be honest maybe just incompetent? I've been using this tire paint on my car for almost 6 years and only had to touch it up after the winter. What the instructions don't tell you (which you should know anyway) is the temperature, it has to be at least 60 degrees Fahrenheit or the ink won't flow. When you open the package, the tip can be changed to a round tip (works much better) and you don't have to refill and shake first. You have to swing and shake the pen every 1-2 letters. (I like to have a rag or piece of cardboard to tap on with the tip of the pen until the ink starts to flow.) Don't run it too hard or it will drip if too much comes out, just rub the tip of the pen once or twice on your rag or cardboard. I usually apply 2 coats and it comes out very light. Allow each hoop to dry for at least half an hour between coats. The quickest way to do this is to apply one coat to all tires and then when you start applying the second coat the first tire should be dry and move on to the other three. After all layers are done, let the paste dry overnight or it will crack. (if not for the night then at least 8-10 hours) One pencil is enough for me for 4-6 coats on all tires. If you follow these instructions you shouldn't have any problems.

Pros
  • handy thing
Cons
  • so far so good
