Silly question.. Painting the "o" on nismo badge

So the red "o" has turned a shade of pink... would regular red paint work and hold up well against rain? I was looking at some dollar store red paint... but I'm really not sure. Any thoughts or opinions on getting my red back?

Update: I applied a shade of red nail polish. Looks good from afar, but up close it just looks silly! Doh!

use enamel paint, do at least 2 coats 3 if you want, then 3-4 coats of clear to keep it protected

I used touch up paint on the emblems on my 4x4 7 years ago and they still look good
