I hightly recommend you hit them with some steel wool to braze the surface a bit before you spray them, do thin coats, and let them dry inbetween. I had to redo mine after about 3 months the first time because the paint peeled off. Now, its been nearly 2 years and I haven't had to touch them.

Better late than never. :oops:



EDIT: I tried the attachment feature, but that didn't seem to work. When I get off today, I'll take some smaller pics so I can use my hosting site and link to them.
