    If you want to bring out the numbers there is a product called lacquer stick it comes in gold silver white and red. I believe Brownells still carries it.

      Texture white colored paint pens will work.

      I have applied the paint on on both handguns and rifles 20 years ago and the paint is still good .

                  I've used lacquer sticks:

                  ...and enamel paint pens:

                  With equal success...both are available in sets or individually...If you build many project guns, it's nice to have a set...
