does anyone know what orange paint I can paint my needle with, orange fluorescent?
I ordered that same one from a company called white gauges, thanksThis is the paint I use... Custom Fluorescent Orange Speedo & Gauge Needle Paint | eBay
It's a water base acrylic. My methods in renewing gauges wouldn't apply. Those who aren't taking the gauges apart in any way would mask the screens with aluminum foil.

I used Testors fluorescent model paint in the little tiny glass bottle and added a touch of red enamel to it.
The pure orange was just a bit too orange and I wanted to match the speedo and clock needles to the three new gauges on the left.

IMO the orange was closer to the '67 needles. One coat just touching up the worn areas.
