Didn't realize how long this takes, painting it is the easy part.
Learned my lesson from last time after painting it with trim paint over the chrome finish. Lasted a year until it started chipping. After hours of stripping with lacquer thinner and steel wool, I primed it this time with Dupli-color dark gray sandable primer:

Then had dinner, and hit it with the first finish coat of Dupli-Color Acrylic Enamel, semi-gloss:

This stuff is is supposed to be tough, but it will take a 7 day cure in my hot garage before I give it another shot, or strip it and start all over.
Thought I'd give it a try, tune in next week.
Having fun,
