Default Painting PSC 50" mounting brackets?

My poison spyder A-pillar brackets to mount my 50" Rigid bar will be in this week. Wondering if anyone had a suggestion of what type of paint to use?

They're being shipped in bare-metal and I'm hoping to be able to do them myself, instead of powder coating. Looking to do them black

thanks for any help

I would ask around at local hobby/hardware stores. They may have tips on which brands and stuff work best with what you are trying to pain. And I will say that I learned the hard way that PREP IS KEY to a good paint job. Good luck!

Sand or strip any rust wipe with alcohol cleaning wipes hang and do not touch with bare hands spray with a etching primer go light so it don't run you can all ways spray multiple coats when dry light sand with a 500-700 sandpaper wipe again with wipes. Spray 3-4 coats of black and then clear.
