I agree with what Eric said. Make sure you get all the chrome off. I had my oval painted once without taking the chrome off. It lasted about 6 months before the paint began to chip off. I then took it off and soaked in in Muratic Acid (bought at Lowes) for like two weeks until all the Chrome was off. I then sanded it smooth and primed it with Dupli-Color adehesion promoter. I then painted it with multiple thin coats of Dupli-Color Toredor Red and topped it off with 6 coats of Dupli-Color Clearcoat. It looks awsome and is holding up really well. I highly recommend taking your time and doing it right the first time!
Good Luck!
