Gun Sight Paint

[AX7400]

This thread showed up at the right time....was shooting my shield today af the range and the front sight dot decided to do a disappearing act. I am hoping I can just paint in the hole where the sight dot was....first the recall then the frknt sight dot flying off....come on S&W!!!

I'm on my phone and can't embed it properly but here's a video on painting sights/ fixing dots that fall out.

To remove the paint or any spills use NON acetone fingernail polish remover. Warning regular acetone fingernail polish remover will wreck the finish on metals or plastics.

I have some white Duracoat I could mix up and brush on the front sight. I have painted many rifles with it and it seems to last forever plus we still need to trade powder if your still interested in doing that?
I guess it would give us more of a reason to meet up

Bright pink nail polish works wonders!

Pat,
I have some neon yellow paint pigment and some neon red too. This is powdered pigment I was going to use to mix with automotive epoxy clear to make some tough paint for a special project. Well it never happened and now I have 3 jars of the stuff sitting around. If you want to give it a go you are welcome to use it and I have some slow setting thin epoxy if you want to spare buying some of that too.
