Anybody done it? I was thinking white. Ive got a .40 sigma. I heard acetone was bad for the frame. Any truth in this

Use alcohol to clean the area. I used paint from the craft section at walmart not finger nail polish.
 
I use good old fashioned Testors model paint on my firearms.

Here is one of my USPs done a few years back. Both the slide and frame were filled with red and white paint.

That looks pretty good. What did you use to clean the excess paint off?
 
I use a contractors paint marker.

Clean it off with 99% isopropyl alcohol.

I'll wax around lettering if the gun has small nooks and crannies.

It's kind of a pain to get them clean.

Check out a product called Lacquer Stik. It's designed to fill in lettering. Used to use it on business machines after an overhaul.
