🖌️ Black Paintstik Ambient Surface Marker - Solid Paint (Pack of 12) Review

We use tire markers and they are excellent for this purpose. The packaging made no sense. Who puts a fragile box in a smashed envelope? It was messy getting them out as the paint was scattered all over the place and it would have been nice to keep them in the box after we got them like we do when we buy them in the store, but it wasn't the end of the world .

I gave up those liquid paint sticks forever. You are much better. Put some tape on the bottom to keep them in place. Works in rain oil and on rough surfaces. Works well in all positions. Note: Does not like hot metal so allow the welds to cool. Also suitable for marking NDT fractures. Not sure about chloride content so be careful with stainless steel. I heard it was a stainless steel product but I don't remember the brand.

This item was bought because of white writing on the tyres. The marker is too wide and imprecise for that. It is impossible to edge a letter cleanly throughout. The stick is also too wide for small or tight spaces. Also, it doesn't cover well. Applying a second coat doesn't seem to work either, and it's another opportunity to splatter the paint beyond where it should be. The only useful purpose of this wand seems to be where fairly wide strokes are required that don't require great precision…
