If you can't get a pro with good equipment to paint it, I strongly recommend just getting it covered with vinyl sticker the same kind they use to cover up entire cars. I think you have a better chance with that lasting longer. Good luck.
I painted mine as well, although I just sanded down the original color as it was all spotty, and peeling. I then painted it with black Lacquer paint. Lemmi tell you, it came out like ****. it was horrible. I think i will give it another try and primer this time, if it doesn't work, I am just gonna wrap it.
