Saab NG900 dipstick = worst ever designed. It is possible to read in VERY high ligh conditions, by looking for the "wet"/"dry" interface. In low light conditions, it is close to impossible; especially when at the full or add "lines". (OG900 are one of the easiest to read...) I would not paint as it would flake off in time. Here's an idea: Use coarse sand paper or other appropriate agent to make the surface rough. The smooth surface of the oil film should contrast with the rough surface and then be much easier to see. I may try that...
