Old Albion Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 Brandon, Interestintg problem, When I painted my Pete Ovals for the 351 and the 380 I just painted the red inside the oval first. I waited for the paint to completely dry and then I very carefully rubbed the letters with some card. This was abrasive enough to remove the paint from the letters. I don't know if you can use some very, very fine grit paper. I'm not so good on these fine details. Check Tim's web site I think he gives some info on some of the trucks as to how he painted the Red Ovals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevymaniac Posted May 8, 2007 Share Posted May 8, 2007 I just use a red Sharpie marker Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mackinac359 Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Just as Dan said, a red Sharpie marker. I then use really high grit sand paper to remove the ink from the raised lettering. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
