The white dots on the rear sight are faded, dirty, worn away. What should I use to refurbish - model paint, sight paint, fingernail polish? They are not glow-in-the-dark.

All those will work (YMMV). I used some automotive touch up paint on the last set that I did (just happened to have some Chrysler bright white laying around :eek:). I've been pleased with it so far.
Here's the paint with my application tool next to it:

I have some Honda white touch-up that I was thinking about using and a toothpick so looks like I am good to go. Thanks for your help.
