Any help is much appreciated

+1 on toothpick method. Did it on my Detonics and came out pretty well. Just have a tissue near-by to quickly wipe/dab off any cock ups.

I used white gloss paint from a model shop, applied by a thin modellers brush. I let it dry, and then rubbed over the markings with a pencil eraser to remove overspills and highspots around the lettering.

If you take your time it works well.

Cheers.

I used a white paint marker pen for these but you could use enamel and similar. Even correcting fluid I guess...

The trick is to fill with more than adequate amounts of paint then quickly wipe off the excess with white spirits.

I don't fill them '100% factory perfect' so as to give that used, real steel look.
