Lightly glass bead or strip any old paint off.  Spray the tag with a light coat of black paint.  Then wrap a piece of 600 wet or dry sandpaper around the edge of one of the 1/4" thick rubber sanding pads.  Carefully let the flat edge of the block and the 600 wet-sand away the paint from the top of all raised surfaces in the plate until satisfied.  Here's one I just did:
