A little spray paint to denote metric or standard? I've seen socket
sets and wrench sets that came from the factory with different colors
to denote English or metric.


I agree. I have used nail polish for that purpose very successfully. I
can instantly tell my metric from my standard wrenches and sockets.
Tough and durable as well; I did it twenty years ago, and not one of
them had to be redone.
