FAQs

What surfaces can I use this yellow paint marker on?

You can use it on motorsport tyres, composites, plastics, metals, and rubber. For best results, ensure the surface is clean and dry.

How do I get the paint to flow for the first time?

Shake the marker well, then press the bullet tip down onto a hard surface. This action should activate the ink flow. Test on a scrap piece first.

Is the paint permanent?

The paint is designed to be durable and resistant to fading and smudging on appropriate surfaces. However, permanence can depend on the surface type and environmental conditions. Consider a sealant for maximum longevity on challenging surfaces.

Can I use this marker on fabric or paper?

While the marker is designed for harder surfaces like tyres, plastics, and metal, it might mark fabric or paper. However, the results may be less precise, and the ink may bleed or feather due to the absorbent nature of these materials.

How long is the marker?

The marker measures approximately 142mm in length and has a diameter of 15mm.

Can I get this marker in other colors?

Yes, this B-G Racing Bullet Tip Paint Marker is available in a range of colors, including White, Red, Pink, Green, Blue, and Orange. A pack of 9 pens, featuring one of each available color, is also offered.

How should I store the marker?

Store the marker with its cap on tightly in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Storing it tip-up or horizontally helps prevent ink leakage.

Troubleshooting

Marker not dispensing paint

Shake the marker vigorously. Press the tip firmly onto a suitable surface to prime the flow. If the tip is dry, it may need to be gently moistened with water.

Paint is too thin or streaky

Apply multiple thin coats rather than one thick coat. Allow each coat to dry partially before applying the next. Ensure the surface is clean and free from dust or grease.

Tip is clogged

Gently clean the tip with a damp cloth or a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. Be careful not to damage the tip. Re-prime the marker after cleaning.

Marking is not permanent

Ensure the surface was adequately prepared (clean and dry). For very smooth or non-porous surfaces, a clear sealant may be applied over the dried paint for extra durability. Adhesion varies by material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides precise and controlled application with its 3mm bullet tip.
  • Adheres well to a wide range of non-porous surfaces.
  • Durable paint ensures long-lasting marks.
  • Comfortable to hold for extended use.

Cons

  • May require multiple coats on certain porous materials.
  • Paint adhesion can be reduced on extremely greasy or dirty surfaces.
  • Specific surface preparation might be needed for optimal results on plastics or composites.
  • The yellow color may not offer sufficient contrast on all tyre sidewalls.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Before first use, ensure the marker is properly activated. Typically, this involves shaking the pen well, then pressing the tip onto a firm surface to allow the paint to flow. Test the ink flow on a scrap piece of material before applying it to your intended surface.

Compatibility: This marker is designed for use on tyres, plastics, metals, composites, and rubber. For best results, use on clean, dry, and non-porous surfaces. Avoid using on heavily oiled or waxed surfaces without proper cleaning.

Care: Store the marker with the cap on tightly and in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures. If the tip becomes clogged with dried paint, it can often be cleaned gently with a damp cloth or alcohol wipe. Ensure the pen is stored tip-up or horizontally to prevent ink leakage.
