Default Fading Rocker Switches

The Rocker switches in my Piper Arrow III are getting difficult to read.
The painted words on the switches have worn away. Is there anyway to
rejuvenate these without buying all new rocker switches?

Are the legends engraved? You could rub them with something that
would fill the depressions. Or a paint that wouldn't melt the plastic
that you could brush on and wipe off from the surface of the rockers.

Athernatively, the depressions of the engravings could just be filled
up with schmutz from your fingers. Cleaning would fix that.
