Not enough information for me. Fluo must be a UK based paint/marker manufacturer that I haven't heard of. So I'm not sure what the colors even look like that you are wanting to reproduce.

Monitors are, unfortunately, restricted to the RGB color space. What you see in Photoshop's RGB palette is all that is available.

If the colors are fluorescent/neon, very saturated RGB values can mimic, but not fully duplicate them.

Metallic colors can't be reproduced on screen either. Only through mimicing a metallic texture could you have the color "sort-of" look like such a real-life paint. Mimicing metallic texture can be done through use of the noise filter on top of a gradient.

If you are going to get your project printed...

Fluo colors require special ink... see with you printer for its range and price (these tend to cost heavy since you need to add another ink even if you are in CMYK... and mixing those ink with normal one will ge you por results (1000% or nothing).

If it is for an unscreen presentation then you will hace to seles a clolr close to the one you need... a brigth color (avoid gradiant use flat colors)... ry alos to put you flos on its own layer a play with a subvle outer / inner glow...
