I use florescent sight paint on my front sight (red) & sometimes on the rear sights (white).
The directions say that it can be removed using a solvent.
I had painted the rear sights on a GSG 1911-22 some 13 months ago.
I have decided I didn't want it there & I wanted the plain metal to contrast with the front red optic for contrast.
However, when I went to Wanamaker Feed & Seed (like an old fashioned hardware store) to get some Acetone as my solvent and the owner there warned me it could harm the finish of the metal so I didn't get any.
The finish had a Cerakote application on it so I was afraid to try it.
Any suggestions?
Should I use vinegar, alcohol, nail polish remover or just soap & water with a brass brush?
