In addition tho my previous posting, I'd like to add that I tried some paints I bought at a gun store once for this.
They came in tiny vials and I picked out flourescent orange and yellow to try.
I was seriously disappointed.
The paints required several coats on my black sights to build up a significant enough coating to be plainly visible. And even so, it was disappointing.
I don't remember what I paid for them, but it wouldn't have been worth it if it was free. I'm sure I've still got them somewhere...if find them I'll post a pic.
Next time I do this I'll be using some bright nail polish instead.
