Don't do this.. I tried and failed
I've done this this week .... Tyre Bomb Sticker stencil
clean any tyre dressing off with meths
carefully apply
tape/mask up well
Stainblocked it forst, as the stuff will stop the rubber staining the white gloss.. plus it doesn't seem to want to come off anything you put it on.
Acrylic White gloss paint, just a couple of light wafts
allow to dry then remove carefully the vinyl cut stencil
I'm only showing you one...... the best effort one!
So now waiting to clean the car and hopefully jet wash them off... as I think it'll come off like that. lol
But I do like the F1/rally/ race car style lettering on tyres... is there a brand that does it from new??

That looks god damn awful and I think you need to spend some time in the pub with Yer mates and stop messing around with that crap as it screams "Cheap with no taste"!!!

You used to be able to buy tyrewall paint.
I remember going round and painting all my Goodyear G800+S tyres, even touching in the bit that said 175/70 13
Once done it looked OK from viewing distances, but soon wore off.
I've marked the arrows and bits on my mountain bike tyres too..........

In the 90's I did the Y graphic of my Yokohama tyres in white.... on my MKII Golf GTi 16V.... Just a little touch, when most were on bald Firestones heading for a ditch....
