    buddy, until now i used to do it using brush and fabric color, later tried with johnsons ear budd and white paint, bt honestly, many a times, things used to get messed up because of irritating mosquitos. the procedure you have mentioned here avoids any mess up that can be caused by novice hands or any other external disturbance. i really appreciate your way...

        Anyways when i tried the same on my gladiator's tyres the paint dint last for even a month.
        that happened in my case too.

        But dont you think that sticking stickers on the tyres would be more convenient & less time consuming???
        just cover them with tape n peel off alphabets won't take much time..i don't know about others but i enjoyed doing it

                    hey sooraj, as mentioned earlier in thread & also above by lightsportz, marking by correction pen doesn't stay as longer as aerosol paint does..

                            i used whitener for writing. front tyre completed. looks nice will need 2 whiteners for bothe tyres may be max 3 whitners 30x3 =90rs for 2 tyres.
                            whitner cost 90rs
                            spray cost 120rs
                            whitener easy to apply spray after sticker cutting its very very easy but sticker cutting is a little bit hard hmmm
