what is the darkest black (that is durable) available?
#10
So as a quick update, it appears no off the shelf paint will meet my needs. I'll be experimenting with musou black, clear coats, polyurethane, etc to make my own blend (I'm even thinking about how CA glue boils off and the surface it can leave) Product to be applied by preval throw away stuff. Trying to go no specialized equipment

Front sight post and peep rear sight going to get the first treatment before barrel as they are far easier to clean up if things go weird

If you are unsure what musuo black is, do you know what vanta black is? Musuo is darker supposedly. So much it's supposed to be the blackest black available with over 99% light absorption.

LR1955 had mentioned to me tapering the front sight so I only use one side.... with a complete silhouette with no visible reflection I think that this will be important as I will no longer be able to catch myself with an improper sight picture and make the correction.
