Coloured lettering on tangent sight

[Kernel Panic]

Hi all. I've got a CZ 452 Lux with a really nice rear tangent sight. The distance scale is recessed into the metal. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the white lettering like on an SKS? Is an enamel brushed on, then wiped off with a squeegee or something flat, or is a waxy resist put on, painted, then the resist dissolved?

Degrease, use nail polish and wipe off excess. If need be, you can put some nail polish remover on a lintless clothe and wipe with that.

Thanks for the quick reply guys.I decided to go with the nail polish since it seemed more permanent, although enamel would probably work even better. A lot of dab wipe, dab wipe to get the lettering consistent, but it looks great!
