Years ago I refinished a pot metal foot on a radio leg that needed a gold leaf finish. It was a two step. First was an Elmer's type glue painted on and then the leaf was on a thin mylar plastic held over the surface and then a paint brush on the mylar side pushed the leaf to the glue on the surface. It was a kit I bought a hardware store. The idea is to coat the letters with a water based glue (ink roller?) and then a transfer of some sort Just an idea that popped in to my masked head.
