Unfortunately Slater's have been stopping their 1mm high letters and numbers for ages due to moulds issues.
I've asked them about 8 or 9 years ago if they intended to re-issue them and said no for the above reason.
Finding them on second hand sites is now very difficult.
Good luck!

Maybe you could get them 3D printed or etched. Most good model shops know someone who could make that sort of thing. The are small specialist outfits who will make custom model railway locomotive name plates by brass etching them would could certainly etch words on brass plate.

Hi Jumbo Aber used to do them, found a site with them but out of stock. Will buy more 2mm ones.
