LacquerStik Fill-in Paint. Comes in Black or White. Sort of like a
crayon in a cardboard tube. I think I got mine from MSC. You rub it
into the etched marks, let it harden a little, then wipe off the surface
with a hard cloth so the fibers don't get into the marks and pull the
paint out.

Good luck making them white on top. I'd settle for just getting the
black into the grooves.


Paint white.

Let dry.

Scratch white paint out of grooves.

Apply lacquerstick.
