Tire Crayons and Paint Sticks

Tire crayons and paint sticks provide a simple way to create visible markings during inspections, service, storage, and tire handling. They can be used to identify tires, mark service information, distinguish completed work, or create other visual references within the shop.

Vampa offers tire marking products including Markal Paintstiks, designed to create highly visible marks on surfaces. The available product information states that these paint sticks use real paint and are suitable for marking rough, rusty, or dirty surfaces. They are also weather and UV resistant for longer lasting marks. 

When selecting a tire crayon or paint stick, consider the visibility you need, the surface being marked, and whether the marking needs to remain visible during storage, transport, or outdoor exposure.
