If you paint it you lose the original finish with the little tiny fibers showing. Bead blast and semi clear coat.

Another vote for clear coat. I only cleaned mine with Windex and coated it. All the stamps remained in place. Craig

To do it correctly , you bead blast the casings and then clear coat them. I use Eastwood Diamond Clear. See pics. Jules

Has the stamps you need. I used krylon semi flat black, but the original was a little glossier than that.
$50 for a rubber stamp Do a search on Heaterbox. I ordered mine for $6.00.....shipped to my door...
for the 1970 b body non a/c heater box number 2936680 go to http://www.rubberstampchamp.com/custom.aspx?id=30 then go to size 3/4 x 3 and type in 2936680. font- futura book, size 38, bold, with a 1 pt border. nice source to get my stamps for all of these.
My heater box has 2936681 the difference being the one on the end
