The serial number on my bike was stamped before painting. This makes the numbers almost invisible. I wanted to see them just long enough to record the number. Here is how I did it.

Thank you for the tip. I have used an old lipstick before, but this one is actually less messy to cleanup afterwards.
I went back to clean it up and was reminded that Elmer's white glue dries clear. Nothing to clean up :-)Quote:

Another good tip, thanks, Rick. This would be a PVA glue, I suppose?
That is what I just read.Quote:
