Remove all the bits you want painted and take them to your local spray shop and let them do the rest. ____________________ 20:02:36 Jammy-R6: any holes a goal

I'm no expert but:
Preparation, preparation, preparation! clean, perfectly smooth and grease/dirt free before you start.
Mask anything that wants masking properly. Screw a bolt into any captive nuts.
Multiple thin coats, allowed to dry between.
Somewhere dry and DUST FREE to dry the paint.
Use rubbing compound as necessary.
Finish off with a T-cut then a good polish.
Practice spraying an even 'strip' on something else, try to pass back and forth over the bit to be painted, change direction off the item to avoid an excessive build up of paint at the turning point.
Be aware of where any overspray is going (like the neighbours washing line etc.) ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”

I suppose the other way is to use cold curing 2-pack epoxy. If you are feeling rich.
Slap it on any old how then marvel as the hard gloss finish smooths itself out before your very eyes. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
