OTOH, it might be fun to try and find a filler paint for the lettering that
would stick!

Has anyone tried Brownells GunKote for knobs?  Is there something equivalent
I can find at the local five and dime?

This is the blurb from the catalog:

Now you can easily apply the self-lubricating benefits of molybdenum
disulfide to alloy steel, stainless steel, brass and aluminum, even properly
prepared nickel plating, in just minutes. Prepare, clean and pre-heat your
part to 100�, spray on Brownells GUN-KOTE and allow the part to dry. Bake
the part in an oven at 300� for one hour and you're done. You have protected
the metal parts of your valuable firearm from rust, corrosion, and scratches
with a beautiful, matte black finish that will wear for years and help keep
your gun looking just like new.

Brownells GUN-KOTE is a durable, second-generation epoxy, thermoset resin
finish that will not break down, peel or dissolve. In fact, once it is
applied, the only way to remove Brownells GUN-KOTE is to abrasive blast the
part. It is resistant to all known gun solvents and thinners. Each coat is
approximately .0004" thick so Brownells GUN-KOTE can be used on both
internal and external parts where a close-tolerance fit is required without
having to worry about interference. This makes Brownells GUN-KOTE the
perfect, maintenance-free coating for handgun slides and frames, shotgun
receivers and magazine tubes, rifle actions and bolts, anywhere you need an
ultra-thin, self-lubricating, permanent coating that protects and wears like
crazy.

I know mentioning "firearms" products such as oil and grease got me flamed
once before, but this looks like pretty good stuff:)
