Filling In Missing Print on Decals

[WD]

Fellow Forumites,
                         I have an old Americal-Gryphon decal sheet that has some serials and script that is missing some print. They're incomplete. I'm thinking that, if I get brave enough, that I'll get a VERY fine-tipped brush and some black paint to fill in the missing gaps that were missed in the process. (I'm not talking whole letters and numbers, but parts of letters or numbers.) I figure to fill in, and then overcoat it with Microscale liquid decal film.

My question for y'all is: which would work better: enamels or acrylics?

Thanks!

I would use enamels. I found out the hard way that some acrylics do not work when overcoated with the decal film. JMHO

Thank you sir!  I was on the Microscale site, and it said to thin their stuff with alcohol, and I thought "Hmmm . . . that could be bad for acrylics". 

Enamels it is then!  Now, to find a brush small enough, and get the courage up!
