Coloring light bulbs
 

What can be used to color light bulbs?
Where can light bulb covers be found?
Like for turn signal bulbs or the like?
Thanks
Jim

I used an amber highlighter marker, quick and easy.

I went to Michaels (craft store) and bought orange glass paint for my 6 volt parking/turn signals in my '39. Works like a champ and no peeling.

I've used transparent paints from local hobby stores, Pep Boys sell the bulb covers, and sometimes regular spray paint can be used - light mist.

You can get the yellow or orange paint at hobby stores. it's used to paint the bulbs on train signals for model trains. I've used it and it works well.

Thanks everyone. Those are great tips. I want to make the turn signal lights red in front.
I know, probably not legal.

I know truck stops used to carry thin silicone covers for various size light bulbs in various colors but I haven't looked lately.

Red is a problem. A flashing red light to the front will most likely get you a ticket. that is reserved for emergency vehicles.

Red will get up pulled over.
