Rewiring my EFI Magnum - 1970 Dart Swinger
I painted the volt meter gauge pointer to match my other pointers. Last time I had the cluster apart (when I fixed the fuel gauge) I painted them all as close to the correct colour as I could get. I used fluorescent model paint, which adds a bit of luminescence to them. Not like that radioactive paint they were using on watches in the early 1900s, but it's the best I could do.
I got the orange I was looking for by mixing these two colours, about 90% orange 10% red. Literally one drop of red in that little bottle cap of orange is perfect.
