    No. I've tried red-on-black before, and the red gets drowned.

    White will work, but you've got to put it on thickly.

    I saw a picture on here a while ago with red on black string but I think they said they had to put white on first and then colour it red.

    If you go over the white with the red the stencil tip turns pink I know this from experience

    Maybe they used some kind of marker or something, I can't remember what they said because it was a long time ago when I saw it.

    White works fine... stencilled 2 fresh zymax 65 black yesterday :)

    Can't imagine that red would show at all.
