Same here, but I'm going to add another coat when I get home.

^^I should have read the thread before I chopped mine up!

A common "mod" on my Glock site is a plain ol' White Crayola.

I can't say it would work here, how well it would hold up or clean up, but at least you would have a lot of colors to choose from.

Spa yellow touch up paint works fine. I've had mine done for a few years.

We need pics!!! Also, what did you use to clean up the touchup paint? Nailpolish remover? Just a wet paper towel?

I don't have any pics but i'll try to take one tonight. I used tee-shirt material stretched over an old credit card. It works very well. You never give the paint a chance to dry and it comes right up.

My friend did this with a red crayon. It got hot in his car and the crayon melted, red was over his whole palm the entire day. Definatly a cool alternative, good idea.
