I used an acrylic paint pen on mine.
After a few hundred rounds...
Still looking good.
Glad I did it.

I was a bit worried about the acetone and MEK on my slide also.



Some good looking XDs in this thread.
Full of win.

You used MEK on your slide and it didn't harm it at all? man I have seen MEK do some bad things to a lot of stuff and that is why I never let MEK anywhere near anything I wanted to keep

Well, its weak finger nail polish remover.
