RE: Labels / Decals for kit front panels

head on down to your local R/C model airplane or R/C Car shop. They will have amazingly sticky vinyl letters. You might have to get them to order small enough ones. OR you can go on line and try places like Great Planes or Tower Hobbies. I have used ones as small as 1/4" tall and I think there are smaller available.

A hobby shop that deals with model railroading will have sources for tiny lettering but most likely they will be decals and require clear coating for best durability.

You might also strip your unit down and have a trophy shop engrave the lettering you need right into the aluminum then use a Lacquer Paint stick to fill in the engraving with black. Available from some one like Brownells gunsmith supplies
