Bakelite can be polished very nicely using Brasso or brass polish 
followed by carcleaner wax. If there are scratches rub them first with 
wet and dry 400 followed by 1000 and flowerpaper. Deep scratches can be 
filled in with colored epoxy.
The lettering can be filled in with white paint on cleaned (washing up 
liquid and nail brush, degreased with white spirits) before the rubbing 
and polishing.
This will leave them nice and shiny in the proper  shade of black. 
Indian ink will leave them to black AFAIAC.
