Clean the knobs thoroughly using white spirits and let dry completely. 
Fill up the letters with white paint and let dry for a few days. Scrape 
over the top carefully with a razor blade to remove the excess paint and 
sand using 400/1000/2000 grid wet and dry. Then use a good polish 
cleaner and wax to rub the knob to a shiny finish.
