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.

If you ever fall over in public, pick yourself up and say “sorry it’s been a while since I inhabited a body.” And just walk away.

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
