Fluorescent Red Speedo/Gauge Needle Paint
If you are restoring a vintage gauge cluster, this is a must have item. Our fluorescent red paint has a red/orange color just like the color found on vintage Ford, Chevy, and Dodge instrument clusters. This special paint has a high fluorescent solids content and will meet or exceed the original fluorescent red coating. This is a true fluorescent paint that is specially designed to “glow” under the lights of your dash. Using a non-fluorescent paint will result in your gauge needles appearing dark or black at night and make your gauges difficult to read. Using a proper fluorescent paint is the only way to properly restore your gauge indicator needles.
Many older gauge needles fade from damaging environmental factors including exposure to direct sunlight. This paint will allow you to properly restore your gauge needles to their original factory appearance. Below you will see actual photos of a speedometer that had a faded, “washed out” gauge needle. The photo on the right is the same speedo after being restored with our product. Notice how the crisp color changes the appearance of the gauge. Even moderately faded needles can make a gauge cluster look tired and worn.

This paint can be very hard to find and expensive to buy. We have this specially packaged for our company in economical size packages so you don’t have to pay for paint that you may never use. Our packaging contains more than enough paint to restore all the gauges in 5 or more vehicles and still have paint left. The special glass container features an airtight seal that will prevent your paint from drying out when not in use. The container also contains two metal mixing balls that easily mix the paint in just a few shakes of your hand.
Even if your needles still appear the correct color, the fluorescent pigment in the factory paint has faded away over the years. Repainting your needles will make them "glow" under gauge lights at night. This is a must have item for any gauge cluster restoration.
