The bulb condoms I used in the past were difficult to get off.
It was almost as if the condom slightly melted/glued itself to the bulb. Makes it pretty difficult.

the paint doesnt fade, the bulbs do. this is the same paint people do their DIY amber corners with. there are a few write ups on how to do this to your guage cluster and instrument panel and what not. do a search.

Re: Amber bulb condoms (2000CX)
i've bought new gauge cluster bulbs and then painted them amber..then like 2 weeks later they faded bad and no one else has had this problem...
can i just get those condom covers for the ac thing and just put them on my #24 bulb? Is there a bigger bulb i can put in my gauge cluster besides #24 to make it brighter?

Yeah, it just takes patience. When I did mine, I was really careful not to rip them, start from the bottom, and push it off, don't pull from the top, take your time.
