More homemade whitewalls - with pics

Fellers,
I'd like to try the home white wall method.
If a guy was to:
A) take the wheel/tire off the vehicle,
B) using a pair of dividers or scribing gauge,set a line on the sidewall using the wheel lip as a starting point
C)mask the line using thin 3M masking tape(as if masking off flames) then using thicker tape to finish covering the remainder of the sidewall/rim.
This might give a good,sharp edge to what seems to be a great idea you guys have posted?
Krylon here i come...

 

That's how I did it, but a word of advice: give the tires a few months to air out, if they are new, or the oils in the sidewalls will turn your Krylon rings gray....

What's this product called? Texas does not have a Menards.

 

Sealbest brand white elastomeric roof coating. I've heard it referred to as Snow-Seal but I think that's a brand name. I've posted pics of my '55 Dodge elsewhere, it has wide whites made this way, I can repost a pic if anyone wants to see.

 

I've seen Snow-Seal here locally....can you post that pic of your '55's tires?

Heres a test i did with the port-a-walls...
they looked fantastic at first, but on one wheel if made a flap that i could not remove.
So i went to the grinding you can see in video above.
Here are results.

Now the port-a-walls wotked great on the boat trailer.
Those are 12" tires.

 

This is the rubber paint I used on the 55 Buick.
it does require the 'aged' tire, as a new tire yellows the white.

It does look great, and can make as wide as you like.
I prepped the tires by grinding off all the letters where the WWW was going.
I used the small 3M brillo type pads.

I'm still not happy with my 'gray' results ...now that my tires are a bit older, I think I might give this method a try....

you want to put a white wall on your fan shroud? thats absurdity at its finest.

 

Um...I'm pretty sure he meant he might be able to use the shroud to mask off a nice circle on his tires.

 

we got a white wall machine....it does a good job but boy is it messy!!
