I want to repaint the DW medallions in a grip that has chipped paint. I have already taken them out of the grip.They look bad!
Can someone give the steps to restore them and what type of paint would i use? 
Thank you, stovepipe

I have an old thread on here somewhere.... basically fill the medallion with paint using a toothpick--then place a piece of fine sandpaper on a flat surface and rub the face of the medallion on it to polish up the logo and remove paint. This is for the brass medallions, not plastic.

Thanks, SHOOT
I did not look that hard in the old threads.
Do you think model paint thinned out would work OK?
If my DW brass emblem came close to your photo, I would be very happy.
Thanks,

I've done them different ways--model paint, spray can, thinned, straight, etc.... doesn't seem to matter, just use whatever you have on hand. I think I prefer it kind of thin...it runs off the toothpick when you touch the medallion.
