You can use white out. After it dries, you can take a magic marker and make it any color you want. If you decide you don't like it, just scrape it off with your fingernail.
I would like to know how you all are marking your rod tips to make them easier to see when fishing multiple rods. Paint, tape, something else? I bought four more BnM Pro Staff rods and want to mark the tips in some way to make them easier to see when spider rigging.

I tape the eyes and then paint mine with Krylon flourescent spray paint. They offer orange, yellow, and green in their flourescent line.
crappie4me2 told me about some paint, and I got a can of it-worked good. I just can't remember the name of it. It was a flourescent yellow. Krylon something.
Paint it white before you use the fluorescence paint, thanks to Speck for that tip.

I spray paint the first foot or so with fluorescent yellow. It has good visibility in the daytime GREAT VISIBILTY AT NIGHT for my old eyes.
I wrap the rods with newspaper and tape it down before I spray to avoid runs and splattering. This stuff will last for years.
Buy GOOD PAINT and remember several light coats are much better than 1-2 heavy coats. Heavy coats tend to chip after awhile.

Good info

I agree with SteveJ on the basecoat of white paint with the flourescent on top. It really makes them alot brighter. I also have some replacement tips from BNM that work great also. Tried them out already and they work great as well.
