not sure if theyll ship to you.

If you string your racket with white string the permanent marker will show

even if u have a decent marker, or stencil ink, red wud be difficult to see on black strings?

generaly if i do a racket with black string i would use white stencil ink.
blue is the one i have a hard time deciding what colour to ink. generally i leave blue string cuz i think i looks nicer neway.

just use white permanent marker...

you might not see it pretty well because red don't go well with black. they both are a darkish color.

You could try using spray paint if you already have the outline.

Spray paint is too thick. Imagine playing with a string with a gauge of.. 1.5mm ?!

Ugh.. it basicly squirts white paint everywhere when I use it..

my friend used a sharpie, but i hated playing with him because the shuttle cork get's marked up as well. seriously tho, it's cool and all, but just annoying.
