A 2$ spray can, spray into the lid + use a brush?

Either that, or a hobby store/arts + crafts store should have something.

We have a place called resene over here, they're paint specialists, get a test pot from the equal in SA. (they're about 4$nz)

The area to be painted would help a lot here. (small? BIG?)

You can get flat black in a can, indeed.

If needed, you can add some paint thinner, to make the paint thinner (best to match them carefully).

I'm toying with a flat black ceramic paint (for engines) for my case mods. Cheap and effective (so far).

i want to paint my radiator and make it less of an eyesore.

i want to paint the copper pipe between the plates (on the visible parts of the rad black, with a paint brush, then spray paint the hose clamps and pvc pipe black, or just use thepaint with paint brush.

and leave the aluminium plates unpainted, (theres no ways im taking those things apart)

peace
