A rattle can of any kind does the job just fine...simple enamel spray

goes on easy and comes off later on without much difficulty when you
change
the numbers.....or use vinyl transfers...easier, just as nice or nicer
done
and you can do any fancy font or design you want...even today fancy
graphics
can be used....if you can dream it up the design can be done

If you intend to hand letter on your surface I think an automotive
paint store or a sign supply shop could supply the laquer that pin
strippers use which is slower drying. I don't know where you are
located, but there is a good sign supply house in Sacramento. The name
is Product Sign Supply 800-660-0553

I may have spoken too soon, apparently they are now using 1 stroke
lettering enamel. You should use a quill lettering brush if you plan
on hand lettering.
