its transparent paint so i'm sure it will look fine, i havent tested it out yet though. Make sure you get adhisive promoter, wipe the markers with some type of wax&grease remover, spray the promoter let dry then about 3-5 coats of niteshades did for me. I'll see how i feel i might get the vertex clear corners later.
