hood Stripes?

I have a green 97Z28 and I'm thinking about putting some stripes on the hood but I want to see how it looks like in person before I put paint on it.
I was thinking about using some black shoe polish.
Would it come off easy?
Or should I use a watter base paint?
I'm sure that would come off.
Thanks,

You can use black tape. It's good enough to give you an idea of how the car will look.

I have these vinyl stripes that have held up pretty good for about 5 or 6 years now and everyone thinks they are painted on until i tell them they are stickers.
