Repainting 3 dot sights

[Frightener 88]

The 3 dot sights on my Taurus Pt 92 AF are a bit darker then Id like them to be. Does anyone have any recomendations on what kind of paint to use to repaint them? I tried cleaning with solvent and it didnt help any so im guessing i should just repaint them.

Model paint, e.g.:

Typing correction fluid called "Whiteout" if still manufactured. less than a buck a bottle back when.

Where can you get florescent Testors enamel anymore???
I love the stuff but can no longer find it or any other decent florescent enamel.

Brownells does carry two brands of sight paint, one called Site Coat, and the other Bright Sights. I never tried them, Testor's model enamel works fine.

I do recall a glow in the dark paint being sold for this purpose but can't remember where. (Old age, I guess)

I have heard of guys that drill out and epoxy in titrium plugs.
