I just got a fire hose to use during group time, for simulating an offensive line...while allowing our OL to have more indy time.
My question is...what kind of paint have you guys had success using to paint the T, G, C, G, T on a firehose?

i used rustoleum, painted it on thick with a brush, did not use latex paint, hand painted the letters in, the painted areas if i remember were 2.5 ft the gaps were 2 ft, i left the gaps just the color of the hose, i have had my hose since 2002 and have not repainted it, held up well and i use it almost every day

Krylon spray works O.K. I mark the gaps and leave the player's spaces blank. I think cheaper is better, here.
Brush on oil based paint like the Rustoleum mentioned above would work, as would an acrylic paint.
I marked the hose in pencil, then masking tape.
BTW I have changed from a canvas firehouse to a 3" plastic flat drain hose.
It is much lighter, doesn't get heavier when wet, rolls up a lot better, and unless you get fire hose donated, it is fairly inexpensive via eBay.
