It is not easy if you are trying to save the paint. If not you should sand them with a flat sander and prime and block the area with 2K primer. In the old days lacquer primer would sometimes allow the lettering to still be visible as if it bled through. if you are trying to save the paint you could try lacquer thinner on a rag and hopefully someone used sign paint and it may wash off. Follow with a buffer. If the truck is faded it will be visible .
