KG PRODUCTS - SITE KOTE

Do what the directions say

Site Kote works really well and it very easy to use. One drop and I was done. let it dry overnight and it was good to go. I am interested to see how long it lasts.

This product is great for us older shooters, it is really bright ! Apply one drop at a time with sight level to the Site Coat, and then spread it around with a straight pin or a toothpick. As for those who have said it drys out and will not mix when you shake it, if the shaker ball does move around , open the top of the bottle, use a small screwdriver to mix the paint a little, then the ball should be loose, and you can shake it, and hear the ball rattle. My first bottle lasted several years, and did MANY sights.

One of the dots on the rear Novak sight on my 1911 fell out. I really didnt want to replace the sight so I tried some of the sight paints I already had and I also bought one of the sets sold at Brownells, both the glow in the dark and standard sight paint. All were difficult to apply and typically took 24 hours to dry. One even suggested to protect the paint by applying clear fingernail polish. The truth is none of them were bright enough to see well enough except in direct sunlight. Eventually I ended up removing all the dots and was ready to purchase new front and rear sights. Then I saw the Site Kote for a very reasonable price and thought it was worth a try. Sure glad I did! Make sure the sight is very clean. I used Brake Clean first to make sure all oil and dirt was eliminated. Then used 99% pure isopropyl alcohol just to make sure. Shake the bottle well and let sit for a few minutes to let any bubbles come to the surface. The bottle comes with a metal applicator tip and is perfect for allowing a very small drop to be applied to the recessed dots on both the front a rear sights. This stuff dries quickly and I was shooting about an hour later. After about a 2 hour session and 150 rounds later the paint was still bright white and looked like the original Novak three dot sight system. The best features about this product is that it is bright white, stays put and is easy to apply. If youre looking for paint to glow in the dark on night sights, this is the wrong product. If youre looking to do some touching up or change to a new color, this is what you want. Even better if youre an Edge member and dont have to pay shipping.

Finally a good consistent easy to apply sight paint that does not run and it tough. Can be removed or touched up if needed. Jim
