Installation 


Gun Glow planning for installation

Step 1

Develop your plan for installation.  Are you going to do dot sights, paint your entire rear sight or a "U" shaped rear sight? You can apply Gun Glow without tape and move the paint as it sets up; however, this will give you a professional look and takes less than a minute.

Step 2

Remove cap and stir paint thoroughly to ensure the pigment is equally distributed throughout the paint

Gather the necessary tools to paint your sights:
• Gun Glow - glow in the dark gun sight paint
• Paper towel
• 2small skewers, thoothpick or small stiff art brush
• A vice grip or other tool to hold your gun in one position
• Latex or latex free gloves (not necessary as soap and water will wash away Gun Glow from your hands)
• Bun Glow will stain your clothes

Using the paper towel and a small amount of rubbing alcohol, clean and remove oil and soot from your gun sights to improve adhesion

Step 5

Using a wooden/bamboo skewer, toothpick or small stiff art brush, apply the paint to the sights.  Take your time and be patient and remember you can always start over.  The paint is thick to support the large and heavy glow in the dark pigment.  Asses your installation, is it even, if your sights are indented, you may wipe the excess away; however, more Gun Glow, glow in the dark sight paint will result in faster charge times and enhanced glow.
