  Blue and white gaffer tape would be even quicker

    Exactly what a gaffer would suggest.

  Isn’t that quite easy to remove, unlike permanent marker?

    Permanent marker is just as easy to remove. On virtually any surface all you need is isopropyl alcohol and a cloth/tissue/napkin/etc. I was also thinking of it from the perspective of vandalizing a possibly insane persons property and want to be done as soon as possible.

      If the signs are certain kinds of plastic the permanent marker can sometimes embed ink ink the plastic. I think if soak a piece of the sign in isopropyl and it swells then you have something the ink will soak into.

      Some markers are more permanent than others I guess (I came across some that weren’t really bothered by isopropyl or solvent).

      For speed I’d suggest a stencil and some nasty spray paint (the type that isn’t easily removed).

        I can’t remember the name of them, but the pen was made of metal. Those never came off!

      Or a dry erase marker if that’s a billboard. Color over, erase.
