Hello all, new to the site, looking for input on fluorescent airbrush paints.
I have been using auto air and wicked fluorescent paints but everything requires a white undercoat to get the true color. 
I was hoping that someone had a better idea for painting dots on spinner blades and spoons without the white?
I have tried using a yellow under a chartreuse, and a light green under a neon green but the color ends up darker.
Thought I may need an enamel or a lacquer based auto paint?
Before I go sinking money into more paint to get some dots I thought I would throw it out there and see what other options I could find.

Thanks in advance
Jason

I use transparent colors and go right over silver or nickel without any undercoat or white. Plenty bright, nice color depth.
