Does your VOM have a max hold?

In looking at the needle, it seems you would have to have a substantial
amount on the short end to accomplish this.  If this were true, I would
think the needle would not return to its rest, or 6:00, position as
easily.
This is just a guess really since I haven't seen how much paint you
applied,
but I bet removing any paint will not change the effect.

I think this is treating the symptom rather than the cause.  I am also
guessing you didn't have these issues before the new gauges.  I don't
recall
if you tried driving around with the power supply disconnected and or
removed completely.
