Buy a set of Testor paints a try a few colors, a drop on a toothpick on the front sight will do you. I ended up with fluorescent pink rose on most of my sights because they show up best against the back ground I shoot against both summer and winter and it made a huge difference. Your eyes or your shooting background may prefer another color that's why you want the box of 8 colors.

I use them on my fishing lures too so the paint won't go to waste.
