Pics?
 Assuming you're talking about embossed lettering?  If you have a steady hand, you can do it, Or find a local sign painter. The template can be made   if you have time or patience
without knowing how detailed it is, hard to make suggestions

On my next restoration I am going to basecoat the lettering white, then clearcoat the lettering, then red basecoat the whole thing, wet sand through the red base on the lettering until i hit the clear, then clear the whole thing. I am not sure if it will work, but trying to paint embossing has been the weak point of my restorations thus far.

        The red basecoat will come off the letters nicely with solvent, no need to use sandpaper.
