Hi Al,

The peg on my R-4 was pretty much faded-out, too, when I got it 3 years ago...

I touched it up with some matching bright red acrylic paint from my daughter's 
old toy box! Worked like a charm...

  Subject: [Drakelist] Red dial scale pegs


  I have a 2B and a T-4X that both have very faded red pegs (or whatever you 
call them) that are used to shift the dial scale for calibration purposes.
  You can tell they used to be red, but there is hardly any red left on either 
of them. I was wondering if there is an easy way to restore the color to them 
without spending a lot of time or money. 
  I thought about touching up the front of them with a red felt-tipped marker, 
but that might just make it look more uneven (or maybe not?).
  Any ideas or past results would be appreciated.

  Thanks,
  Al, WA2AS
