Im not 100% sure...but I think most people use spray primer and then spray paint it. Thats the way im planning on doing mine when the time comes....if it ever comes mad

For mine.. I used about 30 coats of grey primer. wink Then about 5 coats of Semi-Gloss black.

These are spray paints.

Just remember to use several light coats of paint (don't want runs everywhere) and let the previous coat dry before putting the next one on.
And you can seldom go wrong with a satin finish automotive clearcoat.
