what is the best way to paint these guys if i already put the rods in
my friend suggested using painters tape to cover the rods before spraying them
Your friend sounds right

paint the rods.
they look stupid when there is a bubble in them.

I think they look terrible painted. Never seen one guy paint them well and OSL is hard to paint as good as IRL light or even clear plastic.
No bubble > bubble > painted.
Obviously if you don't want green you're fucked. I remember seeing a site where you can buy little rods like this from a third party in colors like red, orange, blue, and purple, specifically made for GW Necrons.

Oh man, now I wanna see a Necron decked out with the tritium rods they've started selling for jewelry and shite.
would be hella expensive but so cool. Necrons with literal radioactive glowing weapons
Just paint them over, treating them like a normal barrel instead of some glowing thingamabob. The clash between the unpainted rods and the painted everythign else isn't a good thing anyway.

That bubble is because of how fucking shit GW molding system is. It's called blow.
Have you thinned your paints?
