I've got Williams F/P reciever sights mounted on several of my Lever Guns.  I want to paint the front sight beads white for low light shooting.  Which type of paint should I use?

Dutch,
     I used Rustoleum on the front sight of my .22 because I figured it was formulated for adhesion to metal. I degreased the sight first and painted with a little model brush. It has been fine for about 8 yrs now!                      IDShooter
