    Yes, paint it outside or in well ventilated area. Some people set small objects inside an old cardboard box to contain the paint from spraying all over. I did bronze some in our home. Look for paint to cover metal specifically. Even department stores like Walmart carry such paint.

    If you give it a light sanding with xtra fine sandpaper the paint will adhere better.. ( Rustoleum)

    I would go with the Rustoleum. They have many metallics you can use on metal and also they have many textures also.

    Rustoleum has a great selection of products. Highly recommended.

    This is a project where technique is the key. Rough the surface, and apply many thin coats, allowing the piece to dry. You can light sand/steel wool between coats. You want to build a finish, not apply one.


    I used to do this making modern hardware match 100+ year old doors/cabinets. etc.
