proton gun light caps

hey guys I was wondering what your guys thoughts were on painting and orange light cap white for the proton gun body near the clippard? has anyone tried this ? would the light still be visible through the painted surface? just exploring my options thanks

The paint will dull most of the light, and what does come out will still look orange or green anyway, depending on the original color.

There are many spray bottle caps almost the exact same shape and size.. I’d just use on of those instead, or make a quick mod, and cast the cap in clear resin, if you must have a clear/white one.
