Use SEM Trim Black
Use it primer less and it gives the look of OEM.

Just sand up the handle and shoot. also works great on wiper arms and
I even used it on my metal dash for my 71.

Rattle Can can be found at a good Auto Paint auto parts store.

Don't mess with most paints from home depot and others. This stuff
works good and looks good.
