Suggestion for Wilton: Make the NUMBER of the TIP in black or red. My old eyes struggle to read the #'s and even the young gals in class have the same problem. I tried writing on my Tips with a black permanent Magic Marker but it washed off. Help! icon_eek.gif

Most of the time any more I don't even look at the numbers. When my students are looking for a tip I give the number but then describe it to them. That way they aren't picking up every tip they have looking at numbers but can go for the round one or the star one and so on.

Why not contact Wilton directly and tell them how you feel about the tip numbers?

You'd have to suggest it to Wilton though.

There are food safe paints that you may be able to use and paint the number on the tip.

wonder if you could darken it with a permanent marker and then paint over it with clear nail polish or something? Probably not food safe huh
