I didn´t know how restore this parts, but the solution came from my girlfriend. She told me: paint it with red nails lacquer!. First of all I clean the rubber surface with a cloth and the liquid that is used to clean the plastic parts from cars dashboard ( it works great also to clean the rubber surfaces from pads Mark III and Mark IV) and then ,with a lor of patience, I paint the numbers and the hexagonal shapes. The result is really good and cheap. At this links you can see some pics.
