    Anyone have a go to brand of paint pen that actually works well? Bought a couple for witness marking and they all suck. Nothing compared to the quality that Toyota uses from factory.

    Jiffy paint marker. 25 years of use. The stuff was a pain to remove off parts when I worked at the autowrecker.

    I used camlin for years and they worked great. But I was in a junk yard so it was just marking lot numbers onto parts.
