I've fashioned myself a couple of peep-hole sights for my Ruger Redhawk, using some SS 1mm plate and using the original sights as a template.

However, I now want to make them stand out as the silver sight blends in with the scenery when acquiring a sight-picture.

So what can I use? Paint would chip as they are a ight fit in the sight mount. What about bluing solution? Would that work on stainless steel?

Thank.
