A red crayon will also do it. Lasts a surprisingly longtime. I used white/red on my Sig556 and it worked well. Took about 3 mins.

I started to use the crayon method on my Z.E.D.U. lower and compared it to actual paint. IMHO the paint just 'popped' and stood out more. So I went with paint.

I used a syringe that came with one of those 'refill you own printer cartridge' kits at staples. I diluted the testers model paint so that it flowed easily out of the syringe and into the engraving. If you mess up, have a clean cotton rag and some solvent to wipe up overflow. Takes a little practice but the results are worth it.

you can also go to the art store and buy a fine brush and a big magnifying glass and really make it nice. ( Ill post some pics when I do my zombie)
