Override createToolTip for the component:

   public JToolTip createToolTip() {
      JToolTip toolTip = new JToolTip();
      toolTip.setComponent( this );
         :
      toolTip.setFont( ... );
      toolTip.setBorder( ... );
      toolTip.setBackground( ... );
      toolTip.setForeground( ... );
         :
      return toolTip;
   }
