I think it's a great video, you speak clearly, the footage is also easy to see and understand. I think it's a great option that's simple and affordable for any gun-owner. I've used a fine-tip sharpie in the past to make the '.45 auto' stamp on my 1911 bbl stand out, if/when that wears off I'll try your nailpolish technique with my girlfriend's nail polish, just don't tell her!
If you want the darker colors to show up better (like the red on the mag that he showed), first do the area in a coat of white followed by a coat of red (green, blue, etc.).
EDIT:
Something that I forgot to mention. Acetone will not harm your bluing as he stated ... but it WILL do major harm to other things like many plastics, paints, etc.
I put a little dab of florescent-colored nail polish on the tip of the front sights on my guns with iron sights. One application and they are still there. Nail polish is pretty tough. I've never had to "re-color" them, still bright and visible as ever.
It wears off eventually, just like nail polish does. I've used lacquer sticks to fill in stampings for jig & fixtures used to built aircraft and other things. If it does start to wear thin, just re-apply it. It's just cosmetic anyway
When I first tried lacquer sticks, several years ago, I found to be the case. I then tested enamel paint (Testers) and it also softens & fails during cleaning ... but it holds up much better than the lacquer sticks.
Nail polish, like ChCx2744 said, is "pretty tough" ... much tougher than lacquer sticks or even enamel ...
... unless you clean your firearms with acetone which, for those who may not know, is the active ingredient in the regular commercial solvent for nail polish.
I have improved many of my pistol sights with nail polish.
