There's quite a bit more raised on those plates than readily appears to the eye -- all the lettering except the numbers that are obviously stamped in.
I had good luck with the only one I've tried. I stripped the whole thing, masked off the open spots where the model, ser # and rpms are stamped, as well as around it (so as not to have to remove it from the tractor, or seat support in my case). Then I shot the whole thing with a few thin coats of black lacquer from a rattle can. Followed that with a light wet sanding with 2000 grit to expose the raised lettering. Took a couple of tries to get it right to where I then threw a coat of clear lacquer over it and removed the masking. Turned out pretty nice.
