    Is there anything like a pen or a marker that can be safely used and removed from automotive paint. I need to install some carbon fiber lips on my vehicle and need to trace the outline to prep the vehicle. Any ideas? If not im just gonna use some 3m green tape. Chris

    A grease pencil would work. Google "sakura solid marker." That is what I use to write on my windshield when going to the dealer "DO NOT WASH." :laugh:

    I don`t think I would use a grease pencil on the paint though. A window, yes, but not the paint.

    Their face will look like a smile because they don`t have to wash an extra car.
