Thanks Charlie

Who sells that?
I use Midway mold release. It's mostly spray graphite with a dull gray finish.
Ok thanks I will try that and by the way I?m loving the Mississippi thanks
I never had any trouble with glare on my sights UNTIL someone told me to try shooting with my eyes OPEN.............................................. ..........................

I bought a flat black paint pen from Amazon.
Lasts longer than the spray.

The historic standby - a carbide lamp and carbide. It gives the best flat black available.
Hello:
Not sure about open flame "on the line", but smoke from a burning plastic disposable knife, fork or spoon should work without buildup.
Respectfully,

Lol, burning plastic spoons? Try a carbide sight smoker. If you can't get that, try fat wood. Better know as lightered knot in the south. You'll have to go behind the fence to light it or the carbide smoker. Excellent carbide smoker. Get it at creedmoor sports .
Carbide is available from Walmart online. 1 lb will last a year or two. Keep it sealed and away from high humidity or it will deteriorate.
