Thanks to all who replied on and off list: I am going to try the nail varnish -
if no luck, then acrylic and if all fails, suggest the paperclip (which is a
good idea for me personally but maybe not for my v. nice customer).

Somehow I never saw the original, so I'm not sure what the question was,
but I would caution against painting with water-soluable acrylic craft
paints. I use those regularly for a variety of crafts and hobbies, and
if you are painting on metal or plastic you usually need a primer in
order to get the paint to stay, and usually also a sealant coat of clear
finishing product. Otherwise normal handling will cause the paint to rub
off the metal or plastic surface fairly quickly.
