Do you paint racket brand logo on your strings?

i've seen a smily face....and it isn't all that....maybe a smiley face on one side and an angry face on the other?

Wondering where can I get the ink in US. My Cab30ms comes with the logo pad, all I need is the ink (red, i guess).

I know there's a kit being sold in badmintonalley, but $6? I don't want to spend too much, especially i have the logo.

use those spray paints. like graphiti pain. it works, but make sure dont pain on the frame cuz it wont ever come off. unless u scrubb and scrubb until all the pain got scrubbed off.

or even easier, use a permanent marker!!!
I'm trying to make a rainbow pattern on my old raquet strings. pretty raquet for a pretty good player

yea i agree plus painting the strings will make em softer and break faster. so it will be like paying for something that will cost u more money.

hehe, if you get proper stencil ink it does no damage to the racquet - and you can make ur own stencil - no point in paying for it.

and if you have loads of racquets like some of the people on this forum (points the finger at bluejeff

) you could have all ur racquets with the same logo on.

if you own a shop you could get all ur racquets with ur logo on to advertise ur shop

any ideas on how to get the original logo off tho?

I seem to observe that other than the sponsored professionals, it is hard to find an "upper ranged" racket with logos.....

Strangely its the rackets in the $30-$50 range in the shops that have the logo...

I hate the logo, after playing for some time, the colour will fade and the racket will look DISGUSTING!

cut the strings? the ones in Uk are all strung in BG43 or 65Ti...so kinda useless, and some of the carlton strings are more dead than Elvis.....or is he.

hehe...you could paint a yonex logo on, but with only one circle. At least it won't look to stupid....like a smiley face, but you'll know its yours.
