SE Head Lettering
« on: August 15, 2005, 01:08:51 PM »

I have noticed a few SEEG's this year with the lettering on the heads that say "Screamin Eagle 103" has been highlighted in red.  I thought this looked pretty sharp.  Is this something you did yourself?  If so, what paint did you use that would stand up to the heat?

They use a heat resistant paint and a veeeery small brush.

I used some black metal paint in a can that I had left over from painting a set of outdoor steps on my patio and applied it with a tooth pick believe it or not. That was in May of "04 and I haven't had to touch it since....FYI

Where do you get these markers?  How well does it resist  the heat?  I like the picture, loks sharp.
