A picture would help.
Most of the ones I have are screen printed and there is not much I can do other than clean the grime off, scrape off the paint from where the previous owners have painted 'around them' and generally try to make them look pretty.
I had a set of Aluminium M/T rocker covers on an old 350 that had fins along the length and raised lettering. I masked them up and painted them black. Then I rubbed them back with wet and dry paper until all the paint on the raised areas were gone. They looked nice once polished and this is how I would do a name plate that has raised lettering. In fact, the access door on the column of my mill has the name raised and I will take the same approach when I paint that.
I think Bill recently did the same on his mill but I could be wrong. As I said, a picture of what you have will help.
