Acrylic paint on neoprene?

[Gidds]

I'm a Sunday painter and I was thinking about using my acrylics to paint my name across the front of my hood. That way it will be right there on my forehead and my buddies won't lose me and if you run into me at a dive site you won't miss me
Anyway I was wondering if it would actually stay on or just peel off? Also what color should I use? I don't want fish biting at my face.

Thanks

I'm not sure if acrylics would be flexible enough to stay put, you can try a dot or 2 in an out of the way place that won't show & see if it flakes/peels off.
Your local dive shop 'might' have marking pens, though they don't provide much for detailed work.
I'd recommend the good old "Plasti-Dip" vinyl tool handle dip/coating, we use that stuff to "paint" kneepads, etc on our wetsuits & etc.
Comes in several colors & is available at most hardware & building supply stores.
