Its quite easy to fix. Use some model enable paint. Will last longer than the factory paint.

+1 on enamel paint.

It's very easy and you don't have to be precise.

Apply a layer, then rub the excess paint with acetone.
Some of the paint will be removed.from the numeral, but don't worry and repeat until you're satisfied.
Choose a matte paint.
Good luck

No worries, this is a good solution and most likely will last many time

Is that question for me? Nope, don't think it has double AR

Have bought enamel matte black paint from a hobby craft shop. But I forgot to buy a little brush. Numpty. Looking forward to the result. I might do all of the numbers too.

Progress update! Just done the first coat. Can't believe how easy it is. Fill it in, wipe the excess paint with finger and the paint remains where it should! Thanks for advise
