Does any body have a good technique for repainting the lettering on the switch bezel on a 69 RR,I tried those little scratch repair pens but they seem to put too much paint out ,any suggestions.
 
X-Fine detail brush from hobby shop, enamel white, no heavy booze/beer the night before, layoff the coffee the day of.

Or.....send to "rrunner" on the site...Don't know if he still resto's them, but does an amazing job for a great price. Quick turnaround. Great guy.
 
Hi
I recently did mine and I used a small fine tip Sharpee white marker that I bought from an office supply store. I used a paper towel to blot off any excess paint, when needed. It worked out perfectly! They also have a silver marker that a guy should keep on hand too ...
Good luck!

I used white touch up paint and applied it with a toothpick. This eliminated the fine hairs on the side of a brush putting paint where I didn't want it. Worked for me anyway.

I used a toothpick too and it worked nice. Slow process but great results.
