[Boatanchors] Jefferson Travis JT-350

[Richard Knoppow]

    Might it be possible to photograph the dials, use a graphics editor 
like Gimp or Photoshop to clean the dirt from the photo and use it to 
print new numbers on the old dial after cleaning it?
    I suspect that any solvent capable of taking the oil/grease off 
would dissolve the lettering or even the dial material.
