Can you remove this paint if you don't like the way it comes out, without damaging the stock sights?

Yes you can. It peels off if you didn't like it. It can also be trimmed after a few days of drying.nifnyounlike how they look then you can use clear nail polish to make it permanent. A little goes a long way on these.

Yes, it's water soluble...instructions are good regarding application and removal, piece of cake!

It comes off easily. I've tried it on two different pistols. I left it on a full sized pistol and am satisfied with the outcome. I also tried the paint on the sights of a small concealed carry pistol with very small snag free sights. Those sights were too small for what I was attempting to do, so I removed the Glow-On with no damage to the stock sights.

Yes you can. It will come off but you will pic at it and lightly scrape it. It isn't like real paint. I suggest that you Practice on several pieces of card board first before applying to anything. To get the desired affect the first time. I have it on all my hunting gear now. Guns, bows everything.

Yes you can, the paint congeal's in clumps. It does not apply as you would think normal paint would. I use my finger nail to remove it from my front sights, some resdual does remain but over time with cleaning with gun solvent it is no longer on my front sight. Nice concept, poor product.

Mine actually cleared it. Doesn't interfere at all, but you could always change to a low profile gas block. I also mounted some flip up a angled sights which work perfectly.

I have a new marlin and it did not fit perfectly so i choose not to use it. I was unhappy with the look.

This item requires the front sight to be soldered on. It's not easy and I would recommend finding a gunsmith willing to do it before purchasing. I tried contacting mossberg to see if they'd do it off me but never responded.

I thru mind in the trash. A total waist. It made the gun heavier and awkward to sight. I even had to modify the slide lock by fileing the pivot area to keep it from binding when in place. In answer to your question, just remove the slide lock lever, after removing the recoil spring and bushing, then place your rail mount over your slide aligning the hole on the mount over the slide lock hole, then insert the new slide lock, (provided) and align with hole in the mount and gun and insert threaded pin through mount, slide lock and gun. Tighten everything. Make sure slide lock doesn't bind.

I have these sights on my "baby" desert eagle .40. On my pistol the factory sights appeared to be swaged into the slide and from the opposite direction normally encountered, i.e. they were pressed in from the left looking from the rear of the slide, not from the right as is customary. Accordingly, they were difficult to remove. Cooling the slide in the freezer and then applying heat on the factory sights was required along with substantial force with a steel punch and a large hammer were required to remove the sights. Both the new sights required light filing to fit as did the dovetails. Once fit to a heavy press fit the sights look and function well, a great improvement over the OEM sights. If you have the tools, time and patience you can install them yourself, if not, have a competent machinist or gunsmith do the work. As complicated as this may seem, it was well worth the effort. I highly recommend these sights for this pistol.

Jim I have removed mine from different guns a couple of times and reapplied. It comes with multiple foam adhesive strips. Work it off carefully and use some Goo be gone to remove the residue from the adhesive. I have had no issues with leaving marks on my gun, taken off a Shiny stainless receiver and a flat black one.

I am sorry you are experiencing this issue; mine has a similar defect too by the serrations. I decided not to do anything with it. Any touch up will make it look worse - trust me. If you do a little research, you will see that some have removed the paint completely, and then used some polishing paste - the result is amazing; a high gloss stainless steel look! Capelos, on You-tube has a video reviewing this gun, and at the end shows how it looks without the paint! You can remove the paint from the slide and barrel only, for a two-tone look, or remove it from the frame, as well, for a complete stainless steel look! If you read my full review you will see that I had recommended to the manufacturer to offer it "blued" or, better yet parkerized! I hope this helps. Good luck.

I doubt it, the stock goes underneath nowhere near the sights on top of the rifle. It didn't affect my sights

Honestly i couldn't speak to that since I don't have any glocks, and haven't handled any in any color but black. It is pretty close to the magpul and the utg fde. Any rough handling and it will just turn black. That color is just some kind of chintzy plastic paint. Really thin coat, couple scratches and your started back in black.

I wouldn't think so... nothing in packaging that suggests such. It dries to a fairly smooth semi-gloss finish, so unless you're exposing it to a really dirty environment, I wouldn't see the need. On a gun sight, I'd say no, you're fairly well protected in the holster, it's simply not going to see a lot of dirt. If you're painting fishing lures with it, I'd maybe try one or two and see how they hold up, a shot of clear acrylic over it might be a good plan in that environment.

Hi PA. I would not remove the front sight. It is designed to be used as a backup just in case the batteries go out on the red dot.

Yes, you peel off the backing and it sticks right to the inside of the sight. Some sights have more body to attach it to than others. I was kind of worried about it, but I have had mine on there for two or three years now and it is still holding on tight. If it ever did come off, I'm sure it would be easy to re-glue it.

Thank you very much for taking the time to answer my question. My concern was that in bright daylight I would not be able to pick up the front sight once painted. I have a tritium insert so I have no problem under dark conditions or even at night.

Easy screw under trigger about where the grip in the picture is and remove the front band that's around stock and barrel .That's it .simple

you can remove the red dot . I don't know how to answer the last part of your question I find that it sets vary high but works ok.

Yep, it's removable.I actually removed it from the pic mount to directly screw it onto a different system. The rail performed perfectly, I just wanted it mounted closer in line with the bore.Additionally, the sight came with (off the top of my head) the star allen wrench, the pic rail, mounting screws and alternate mounting screws.
