I was curious and bought some of that $7.99 Night Sight paint and tried it on a couple pistols I own.
On my CZ-75 & P95-DC, application was fairly easy, and the results after "charging" for a full 30 seconds were actually surprisingly good. The original white dot sights were slightly indented, so the appearance isn't bad either, and daytime sight visibility is slightly improved.
On my Glock 22, where the white dot sights are flat to nearly raised, the application was a little more difficult, and the appearance "less than satisfying".
Still, with a 30 second charge, the sight picture in darkness went from non-existent to say 75% of SigLights or Trijicon (used for comparison).
I'll spring for the Trijicons on my Glock later this year...
Bottom line, this is not a substitute for Night sights on a combat piece, but a curiousity. For low light shooting with a target gun, the results were surprisingly good.
Safe shooting,
