I did not scuff or prime, just cleaned them and painted with flat black enamel. It will stay on.

Is it me or is this NOT black? It looks silver to me. It's not a before pic is it? The pictures posted show some sort of silver color.

I know the door handles are black, but in these pictures the door handle and key entry look silver.

LOL it looks to me like he painted both silver. I kept reading the post and looking at the picture trying to figure out if I mis-read it. - KY
