How to color in a Spikes Zombie lower and other AR build questions

[headcase]

I have a stripped Zombie lower I want to color in the safety markings on the receiver red and white and maybe the Zombie markings green. Dead and Live just won't do it for me. I also need to know where to get the colors and what to use. I want to build this lower as a pistol and was wondering about barrel length? What do y'all think? Originally, I wanted to build a 9mm carbine out of it but I can't seem to find a complete upper for it. Any help on where to get paint/supplies and how to color it in would be great. Also, comments or help on the pistol build such as barrel length, caliber or pieces/parts and suppliers are greatly appreciated. Thanks, B

Fingernail polish.

White base coat with iridescent green or orange on top.

Let white dry before attempting top coat.

Brush in white and wipe excess with a clean cloth.

Needless to say, the area MUST be clean and free of oils. Use break free.

Some use crayons, but it wears quickly.

I did just the opposite with my Spikes lower. I have the Calico Jack and had it redone in all black through a local coatings guy
