Default repainting wiper arms...

Any tips on repainting my wiper blade arms? The black has worn away to a shiny metal look and I wanted to respray them. What stuff should I use/steps should I take? Thanks.

Ok I will give it a try...any certain paint I should use in particular? Oh yeah, teg92, did you ever get my messages about those speaker covers? If you have pics, send them to me. I am still interested.

You don't need to prime the wiper blades. Just go to a Auto Supply store, get some Red Scotch Brite Pads by 3M, sand them for a little bit, then paint them with some Trim Black paint that comes in Spray Cans by SEM. Make sure to give it about 5 minutes between each coat, making sure that the paint has time to flash off.
