Who's "your"?

That said http://www.brownells.com/gunsmith-tools-supplies/sight-scope-installation-tools/sight-insert-kits/brightsights-gun-sight-coating-prod1480.aspx Link to a slightly luminous sight paint kit at Brownell's. True glow in the dark type sights are Tritium in a capsule. Tritium is a low radioactivity element that glows for about 10 to 11 years. The individual consumer can't do this themselves due to the danger posed by the radioactivity. Companies that make up sights like Trijicon make and sell Tritium augmented night sights. When they wear down in brightness you send either the sights or the slide off your handgun in to have them put in new Tritium capsules.

Haven't tried them but if you read thru you will see that it is a "covert" way of getting vials of tritium lamps.

I meant to edit my post to say that some of the folks in those posts and related links are using the vials for ZRAK and other illuminated and IR scopes in which the lamps have failed.

Wrong.

Here fixed it for you. They have "purported" to using the vials for ZRAK and other illuminated and IR scopes in which the lamps have failed.
