Hey guys, I'm looking to paint the cups on one of my damas to help with tracking but I'm not sure what to use exactly. I considered just using permanent marker but don't want it to look tacky. Then I considered paint pens (which may not look much better) but wasn't sure how certain paints would effect the playability and "stick" for lighthouse or lunar tricks. If anyone has suggestions, it would be greatly appreciated!
I've taken a coin and drawn a circle in the middle of a cup then just used black (or other) fingernail polish. The bottom of the cup generally doesn't touch the tama so you can use whatever you want for the mark.
That's actually a great idea that I hadn't thought of. I'm really shooting for something like Rolf has in his headshot edit but the solution you've presented seems adequate enough.
