I've not updated about the paint situation.

The first thing to do is stamp in the labels for the various controls. I used a lettering kit available on eBay.

The areas where I didn't want black paint were masked off with tape - the flanges and screw holes. A couple of coats of satin black spray paint were applied, then white acrylic paint was applied to the lettering. I found the letters had to be stamped quite deeply for the paint to hold. I could also try an oil paint.
