Milled (?) Lettering in Wrinkle Paint

[David Stinson]

If you've ever looked at the top of a Command Set
receiver or transmitter painted black wrinkle, you'll
notice tube location lettering in the paint.

The paint seems to be "milled" or perhaps stamped
with the lettering while it's still pliable.
The bare chassis shows through the very fine letters,
which are recessed into the wrinkled surface as though cut
with a very, very fine bit.

Does anyone know for certain how this was done?
