Rustoleum in black or brown is common in the bush up here. Not pretty, but practical. Personally, I'd rather use Duracoat or a similar product, but that isn't always easy to find.

All you really need to do to prep is make sure its dry.

This is an example of a rattle can job:

The whole thing was done with rattle cans.

Camo Krylon Fusion and black (Krylon ?) webbing spray. Several coats of satin clear coat for finish. Stands up to abuse OK....easy to repair when needed.

The best part about Krylon is, if you change your mind and want it back original, all it takes is lacquer thinner and some rags.
