HUGE difference, looks GREAT!

Does it harden once exposed to the air for a bit?

You may want to put some sort of clear coat over it once it completely dries....just a thought.

Hey that looks TERRIFIC Taz !!! BEZEL PAINT 46145 It came out perfectly
if you ask me. From here, it looks as if it came from the factory
like that. VERY nice ! The paint really shows off the bezel more,
and even seems to make the dial look bigger imho. NICE job !!!

Great Job Steve! When the numbers on a bezel are recessed, I like it when they are blackened. I think it looks Good when the numbers are raised and they are the same silver-tone as the bezel. GOOD CHOICE on doing this mod!
