I used emery cloth soaked in water to remove lines and maguires scratch-x to make it purty but ended up switching back to stock lenses because it looked cheap with the lines all removed. For paint I just used flat black tremclad and it's held up fine for a year and a half and prep was just a 3m scuff pad.
