| Any product you will recommend to improve my barely visible sight on my TP-9? |

If you don't mind redoing it somewhat frequently, craft/hobby shops sell any number of colors.
Nail polish can work, but it is even less durable. I found a glow in the dark paint at Michaels which I used on a few sights that had recesses... I put a few thin coats into the dimples and filled them just shy of flush. When dry it yields a slightly yellowish white that does glow a bit in the dark after light exposure. I can scrape it out with a dental pick and reapply it when it chips or flakes. |

Saw these two on Amazon.

They aren't that bright, they rub right off, and hard to apply. |

Glow-On super phosphorescent paint. It's ~$6 a bottle on amazon, and catches light very well. Just reapply every 3-5 months. It really is a neat little product. Not a replacement for night sights, but its damn good. I believe that is the same stuff I landed at the local Michaels. I tend to remove/ reapply mine about twice a year. |
