Buy Flat black paint, high glass enamel and high grit (almost smooth) sand paper. Start off by sanding it untill it looks like the pic below, then spray like 3 coats of primer, 3 coats of black paint, and top it off with 4 light coats of gloss. Use alchol to clean the dust off after sanding with a towel.
