I may go ahead and order some night sights for it, but I'd like to try a cheap fix first. How do I get that paint cleanly in the little holes? The toothpick application method? Spray it into a cup until I get a volume of liquid a toothpick will pick up?

For me colored dots or contrasting front sights are distracting in any light except near darkness. The beauty of night sights is the inserts are generally not visible until there's insufficient light to focus on the front sight effectively.
It's basically flat black right now.
