Thanks I sand them with fine paper or pad. Then sand down the threads to make room for paint and clear. Making sure the threads are clean and the nut fits a little on the loose side. Then spray them with auto colors from Plasti-kote. Like the metalics. Shake the can well. Warm it also in some hot water. Sprays nicer. Two dust coats or until covered. Let dry. Then on a turner coat with a wet coat of Permagloss. The permagloss drys as hard as a rock. No problem with it wearing out. Will last a very long time.
I also mask up the nut and paint it to match
