normal paint wont work - it needs to be transparent paint - ie the tamyia stuff. as for it needing to be high temperature, experience has shown otherwise. the durability is just fine.

i also had some troubles with my first go being a bit dark. i subsequenty did it again with a thinner coat, and hey presto shes just fine. ALSO - makes ure there are no green filters inside the speedo (other than on the globe) and if you clean things up a bit with soapy water, will make the light easier to get out. plus youll find the perspex cover of the speedo yellows with age which can be a PITA.

btw - i did mine red, not blue - give me that audi quattro interior baby!
