This was done by painting the marking area yellow, applying some 1/4" Helvetica self-adhesive vinyl letters, spraying green over all that then peeling the letters back off.
It looks surprisingly authentic.
Method 2 is to have my buddy, Adam, make me a stencil mask to apply and then just spray the letters yellow.
On the real thing, they simply held a cardboard stencil with the correct markings up the grenade and sprayed. Lots of runs and overspray on the real deal. The South Africans were sloppy about this.
Update:
Did a bit of touching up. It's better.
