    A lot of the paint has come off the silver bit on the right (see (horrible quality) picture below), what would I need to re-paint this?

    Also, a number of screws are missing from the back, inside on the metal plate and on the left side on the plastic piece, what sizes do these need to be?

    Thanks

    I think the best system to replace the indications, is to look for sheets of letters, Numbers and lines in black , that can be applied with rubbing/scratching... And put a transparant coating over iT.....

    That's a good idea but I'm not sure the letters are small enough.

    Trying to find the blue paint used on the casing, it's a bit scuffed on the corners and there's a scratch on the back.
