White Striping HO Locomotive Tires

I am starting to refurb & repaint a couple of vintage brass locos and the prototypes had white "sidewalls" painted on the wheel tires. Does anyone have a good way to paint these stripes evenly? I'm not certain that I could paint them freehand to good effect, so any recommendations would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks, akriggm

Sigh. You really should post this in the Model Railroader forums.

Rich, I thought that was where I was as I had logged into the site through Model Railroader's site. Obviously I went astray somehow...... Thanks, Mike
