Hi Guys,

I just got one of my wife's Christmas presents finished. Except for one thing. It is an Emerson clock radio model 31L06. It's nothing special but just what she wanted. The problem is with the radium on the clock hands. They don't glow in the dark like they should. Does anyone know of a way to get them glowing again? Like something available that I can paint on to get them to glow?

Thanks,
Eric
