many times the wipe away will pull the lacquer out, very irritating

A friend of mine uses a paint pen, it has a very fine point, so he can fill in the letter or stamp a little at a time, if you have to you can use acetone to remove any excess. It is harder to get out than lacquer but not permanent

Try the crayola crayon method. Everyone who tried everything you mention said the crayon method was far best. Wax dried hard and will not melt from shooting.
