Lettering a car

To be honest with you, I would suggest using vinyl to letter a car rather than using paint. Vinyl is extremely water resistant and durable and the best part about it is that it is completely removable, so you can change it whenever you want. I have worked for a printing company that does vinyl lettering and wrapping and it is quite amazing what they can do with the material!

It really depends on the type of paint you want to use , Most people use a lacquer , if this is the case use a lacquer thinner and a brush made for pin striping .

You may want to use a  vinyl  stencil  , which you can  cut with an X-acto then use a spray photo glue to hold it in place . Plus you can see through vinyl , so you can trace the lettering .
