Paint mark for safety
« on: February 05, 2022, 11:36:32 AM »
Has anyone tried to replace the red paint mark for there indent on frame for there safety?  If so, What did you use and did it work out?  Mine on TSOthe mark is all but gone.

Testor's red model paint. Dip the end of a toothpick so you get a small bead of paint on the end, then hold the toothpick in the indentation and the paint will flow and fill it.
No matter where you're going, there you are.

Model paint usually works pretty good. I use it on iron sights and it holds up well.

If you want the paint to be truer/brighter (especially on sights), do a layer of white first.
