I used the front half of that sandwich dial as a template to paint the back section of the dials I am useing this keeps the overflow from actually screwing up a good dial.
I am useing a model paintbrush that I shortened and trimmed in half to make finer for this kind of work ..
they make a hose fed "pen" for applying lume that might work better but I'm just learning all the ways to work with it.
I have discovered that you don't want to spill it on a dial because its laquer based it will lift the paint off the dial.
The lume does however dry slowly at the right air temperature and at a certain point its mailiable like play dough so when its used in raised markers you can push it away from the sides as it drys with a screwdriver or other hard tool.
its kinda fun, I blue lumed a watch tonight over the c3 that was on it and the lume is kinda blue green now ;)
