What "writes" on black neoprene?

[hdtran]

What the title says... I'd like to mark our wetsuits, booties, etc. Black sharpie pens probably won't show real well!

Try a paint pen. They have different colours, white and yellow would probably stand out best. I buy mine at LeisurePro.

I use a paint marker (white) that we mark steel with at work.

I use the silver sharpie as well. Works great.

I agree with archman. I got one of these white markers from LP, and it works well. A bit different on different neoprene, though... on one pair of booties, it looks quite white. On another pair, it came out softer and greyish... but still very legible.

And on black rubber (fins, mask) it makes a bright white fine mark.

We'll see how long it lasts, though...

I used regular paint markers that you buy for model cars. So far so good. The only thing that it doesn't like to adhere to is the rubbery parts of my fins and the coated weights, it smears even after a few days of drying.

The paint markers are also available at Artist Supply Stores for those who need it faster than it can be shipped from a mail-order house.
