I was going to try a marker first, but all I had at home iare the alcohol/sovent based ones, so not sure that would be a good long term option. I figured the paints that are specifically made for plastic models are safe for teh plastic.... And with masking tape on each side, the painting wasn't messy at all - the paint is not terribly runny - I guess it's desgined that way for the plastic models where one needs some quite detailed work occasionally... or I just have an old tin that has gotten thicker by age...

Anyhow, tonight I'll paint the other two edges with a small 'lip' onto the flat surface of the lightwedge and do a second coat on the one edge I already painted (just the edge). I'll post pictures when it's done so y'all can compare.
