Brad,
Those parts are not painted. The correct finish is plated with zinc.

Brad, Nothing worse than using fake silver paint on a part that should be zincad. Looks like stuff you see at cruise nights in my hood.
Get a large batch of parts together and let a professional plater do them up right. A plater typically has a minimum charge per batch so take advantage of this.
PA is short on cadmium platers. But Ohio is loaded with them. John
