I'm thinking of using white epoxy primer with a gloss reducing additive which also tones down the bright white because of the additives tea like color. My glare shield will remain black. I just bought the MGL RV-1 Infinity for Rpm, the Velocity AHRS with SP6 Magnetometer for compass only for now and the V6 transceiver. I will have a mix of vintage steam and modern digital and wont have to screw the compass to the glare shield.
