When putting the decals on my 52 guages I found that it worked good to be sure the guage face was wet/damp so I could work with the decals just a little. ANY tiny grain of dust/dirt will show. I had one but when installed it is not noticeable.
Give it a spin. You can do it.

EDIT: here is a pic of mine.

I'd rather walk and carry a Chevy hub cap than ride in a Ferd.
I can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you smile
