A while back. Is there a brand or type that you recommend?

I looked at fingernail polish colors, but didn't see anything real bright. I guess the more subdued colors are popular now. Found some fluorescent & glow-in-the-dark sight paints on Amazon.

Walmart. Flourescent yellw, green an white. On my Star BM I actually covered the back right and left sides of the rear sight in flat white and the front ramp in yellow. Made a world of difference for my old eyes.

I used same paint on same gun!
