For individuals I paint my front sight "blaze" orange with spray paint that was once sold by Winchester Suttler; a paint which is easily removed by simply wiping it off.
Unfortunately, per the proprietor of Winchester Suttler, the firm that produced this particular type of paint lost their factory in a fire and has/will not attempt to recover from this unfortunate event.
That being said, the sole source vendor of this unique spray paint is no more... I've communicated with Birchwood Casey (and other paint firms) in hopes of ID'ing a currently unoccupied "niche market", but they're either not interested, or unwilling to spend the needed resources to develop and put into production a "wipe-able" matt, flat, blaze orange spray paint.
I realize that there are existing sight paints available that can be painted on, but I'm looking for the path of least resistance when it comes to temporarily marking my front sights orange. I'm not interested in any permanent paints, be they spray or paint.
ANYONE know of a similar product? Or is there anyone out there willing to sell any remaining cans of Winchester Suttler's Orange Sight Paint??
