Flourescent orange looks good.

yes, I saw that one. The flourescent Red looked even better (closer to original).
Do I get spray or brush-on??

If it is available, I would get a paint pen. No masking and smoother than a brush.

I used the flourescent orange to put some "Hi-Vis" marks on my gun sights. At that time I was thinking: "This would be awesome on my gage needles !" I haven't looked at the red but the orange was really decent.

My old man detailed the speedo in his Javelin. Looked real good but threw the speedo out of calibration. He used a brush. Maybe if it was sprayed?

If You Go With The Spray It Will Lay Down Alot Better Than A Brush..

I painted mine with Chevrolet Orange engine paint, looks good! I might even try it on the AM radio pointer too.
