Some things to try...
  Tent light in a black box if you just want the writing. W/point li ghost
ht source.
Tent with a cone of frosted mylar. Kill the reflection of the camera lens
with clay rubbed on the spot of the reflection. Of course use your flat
black filter ring disk to block the lens markings.
Spray bowl with water based hair spray to act as water soluble dulling
spray.
Show us your results!
