For giggles try some fluorescent green.I was going to say fluorescent orange paint would really pop.

this idea.in general MAY be my next endeavor in the rabbit hole
But I'm thinking just use the same technique I use for painting sights.
Nail polish of preferred color using a paperclip as the brush. It would be more tedious over spray paint but I would probably make less of a mess not using the spray method

nail polish is heavy and not uniform in application . would effect the balance

That's why I use the paperclip, I can put the ttiinniiieesssttt dot and build up if need be. I'm thinking the miniscule dot that I put wouldn't do any harm. However some testing will be done in the future to find out

I've got some PINK as in NEON pavement marking spray, I'll sacrifice a barrel to test it, the gun is screwed up anyway so why not, before it gets rebuilt. Ok, the idea was good, the execution was awful, the making spray had the wrong tip. Definitely a real spray tip. Got a real mess on my hands but tried a few anyway, they hit paper and most went in the same hole. Tomorrow, I'll get some real spray paint.
