Coloring Sight Marks

[Kilbo]

White out. I carry a small bottle in my range bag for touch ups if needed and it wipes off with oil if I want to remove it.

I use heat gun or hair dryer and white crayon,
Heat up the metal surface (not too hot), melt the crayon into the grooves, wipe off excess, buff off the haze with a napkin.

I use a paint pen. After the paint dries I lightly wipe with acetone and the paint remains in the lettering if wiped lighly enough. I have some sights done this way years ago and it has held up well.

I just finished marking my M1 and M1A sights using this same method. Worked out very well. Eddie

Oil based Sharpie in the color(s) of choice. Works best if degreased with alcohol first, let dry, then apply a coat and if needed a second coat after the first one dries.

You can use a white base and then a second coat of yellow, red or ??????

If you wish to remove it, then use alcohol again and rub it off.
