    Default Painting The Bananas

    Ok I got the covers chromed.

    Now for the bananas.
    They are urrently the usual grey/silver colour that they come in.

    I want to paint them black.

    Whats the best way of doing it to get decent results.

    Any preperation required or just use black heat paint.

    Noob to painting so not sure what to use to get the good look.
