[Chrysler300] Re: Push Button Lettering




Hi Richard,
The recessed design of the letters makes it easy to touch these up.
On my 1960 I just used a tube of plain old artist paint. Titanium 
white to be exact. I dabbed it into the lettering of two buttons 
that needed it, then wiped off the excess with a paper towel. That 
worked really well because the towel only wiped off the excess 
around the letter and the paint stayed in the recessed part of the 
actual letter. You cannot tell which of the buttons were touched up 
and which are original.

I used the same paint to touch up the lettering on the parking brake 
handle, but that was nowhere near as easy. It required a lot of 
patience and a very steady hand.

Regards,
Gary Runkel
Canton, MI
