Painting a Sparton mirror dial???
#1

I   just bought this Sparton model 98 radio and the dial has some paint that came off.. It is not peeling,,this had come off years ago.. Does anyone know of a way  or type of paint that will work on the back of the glass

I might search these guys. I ran into their site looking for crystalline paint and they seem to have all sorts of things that are meant for glass

   That sort of paint looks very promising ,,except that  orders to Canada must be a t least $100.00.
 I would have to have a lot of dials to paint before I did that .. I might check out some glass shops.
     But you did give me some ideas ,,,maybe hobby shops might have something like that .. Thanks  Dan
