Other Hardware Displays

My Hardware and libraries follows

Arduino Mega
Display 2.4 inch TFT
SPFD5408
(0x9328)

analog_value = analogRead(A12);
temp = (analog_value * 5.0/10) / 1024.0;

voltage = temp/(0.0909);
if (voltage < 0.1)
{
voltage=0.0;
}

Serial.println (voltage);
delay(2000);
tft.setTextSize(4);
tft.setTextColor(RED);
tft.setCursor(18,160);
tft.print(voltage);
}

My problem is the float value "Voltage is coming on screen but when the delay time works and new reading comes the value displayed is over lapping .... i dont know to refresh the screen and display the new reading from the analog pin (voltage).

please help me
Thank you.

It caused by fonts design - it are transparent and do not have a background.
So if you want to display the new value in the place - you should clean it before/ The simplest method for it - to draw rectange with background color, covering the letters that you want to delete.
