    Blue and white to tint it. Possibly needs yellow. If it needs to be desaturated add a very small amount of red or orange.

    What paint are you using? Createx has some blues in that range.

    Most places will sell opaque red inserts. You have to sand them to get rid of the mold mark and also potentially to make it fit (or clean out the hole). Then you have to apply a decal (or paint via using a paint mask, or rub-on transfer) and clear coat it.

    Alternatively, try a red LED under the old insert. You'll be surprised how much better it suddenly looks!

    Quoted from Bill_EM:

    I have the exact same playfield repairs that you just did. How did you get your lettering so perfect? Thanks

    Looks like a waterslide decal (you can see the decal outline if you look closely).
