Default paint marker

I have used the sticks made for tire marking, because that's what i had
on hand. Worked fine. Yellow or white.

Someone makes "paint sticks" for doing what you need done. MSC sells
them in white and black. You sorta rub the stick onto the part to be
"Painted", then wipe off the excess with a hard cloth. You don't want
to use a soft cloth, because its fibers will sink into the indentations
and pull the paint out. I don't remember how long the "paint" must dry
before you wipe the surface.

Are there any favorites types of paint markers that write in white for
re-doing botched up knobs or bezels?

I've got a plastic knob less than 1" in diameter where the markings
have worn off. I'd like to redraw the numbers which are about 3/16" tall.
