Okay, time has come to try a full re-lume with my new stock of powder and binder. The lume is LIT and the binder is Kilabitzz Acrylic satin varnish. The volunteer will be a cheap Guess watch. For doing the small hour markers, will it be easier with a needle or a small oiler like with the hands?

Will be watching this with interest as I have just taken delivery of some lume powder recently and have yet to try it out.

Good luck . I’ve relumed hands and a few hour markers but never ones like this.
Looking forward to seeing how you get on.

Flat, square, shaped, dished (?) and with a variety of binders. One I tried dries far too solid so will be difficult to redo so that's been relegated to coating my light switches
