When doing the pant fill on the hubs whats involved? do you just drop the paint into the letters, wait for it to dry a little and then polish off the excess?

It depends on how deep the engraving is. The deeper it is, the more paint you can scrape off when its wet. I like to have as little polishing as possible at the end as it allows the paint to sit prouder and have more 3d feel. But i make it up as I go along..
