Crayola Washable Markers + Car Paint = ?

Just curious to see if anyone here knows if the Crayola Washable Markers have any adverse effects on a car paint job... I have an idea for a racecar...

(The paint job would only last for a week, then the day of the race, then be washed off directly afterwards. It's the always changing art car!!)

Sounds like a trip to a parking lot to conduct scientific tests! For instance, a lot of police cars and prison transport buses have ample white areas that could be subjects.

IIRC, they are mostly wax. Go for it.

Oh, just saw markers–was thinking crayons. I second GPS, testing is necessary.

Thanks guys. We actually have a spare fender that we painted first to see how the paint would look when we originally got the car painted. However, I like the idea of finding a cop car instead...

One time my kids took driveway chalk and wrote all over my truck. Tires, and plastic cladding make good chalk boards.

I can tell you from experience that dry erase marker can be stubborn to remove from car paint. It can be scary when you've just used one for autox numbers on the Porsche you've only owned for a week.

best way to get dryerase off... a dry erase marker. Write back over it and then erase.

Give Plastidip a try. It seems to work well for other forum members. Paint on a bunch of colors, go crayola on that thing! Then peel it off after the race. Or at the end of the season. It doesn't seem to hurt the paint underneath.

just get dedicated and make a chalkboard car

walmart sells disney branded chalkboard paint that comes in 50+ different colors as well, so you can do pretty much any livery you want in chalkboard. Martini chalkboard? Done, Gulf chalkboard? done.
