You need to charge with light

And the Acrylic Neons I use for my sights.

I use an old Oil bottle to pin point the drop of paint.

Don’t buy any of the old school crap that glows for 5 minutes. You can get chinese copy superluminova that’ll glow for 12 hours on amazon, and it’s cheaper than the old school gun stuff from the 1970’s.

"F" Amazon and Bozos that "anti gun no tax paying POS"
 
I was given a pair of modern watches that had fancy hands that I had trouble seeing. I took the watches to the watch guy and he painted them solid with glow paint. The big white hands are easy to read.

I suspect that if you cleaned and degreased the front sights, the watch guy could paint them with something good.

I just paint with fluorescent red enamel on top of white enamel. Then I top coat with with "hard As Nails clear nail polish, to protect the paint.
