What we do is have vinyl stencils cut out by a sign company, (the reverse of vinyl letters), and use several coats of white spray paint. We stick down the stencils, and mask around that with newspaper etc. We are very careful not to rush it, laying coats upon coats so it doesn't run and goes on evenly. Then just clean up overspray with laquer thinner and a rag.

It's not bullet proof, or perfect but they seem to take wear and tear from several competitions and look good.

We use the font that is in our logo so it all ties in for branding.
