Whats the best pen for a signature on a black alternate jersey? I've seen some that are very light and I'm wondering if gold is a better option than silver. What do you think?

I'd suggest silver all the way. White would be great too. If they really push hard, gold would be very nice, but if they are a feather tough, you run the risk of not seeing it.

Just my opinion, wish I had some examples to back it up.

I would go with a Silver paint marker from Michael's or a place like that.
Dont use those Sharpie silver markers they suck.

Silver sharpie makes it all look like one big blob

It depends how thick you get the marker.
All the ones I have gotten look sweet.
I have this Johan Santana signed with a silver paint marker and it came out nice.

You are correct. I only have fat silver sharpies, so that's why i said that sorry

use Deco color paint pens. they come in a few different tip sizes. fine line should work great. make sure they are prepped and tested before used. they can make a mess if not used properly but they are BY FAR the best IMO

If there's a chance that the Deco pens can blot I wouldn't use them. Advise.

Deco are the best and they wont blot.
I had many items signed and thats never happend to me.
The marker wont blot unless the signer presses down really hard and
it still would take a lot to spill out.
Just Make sure you have the marker ready with the tip full of paint.
By 2 markers just to be in the safe side.
But you should be good.
