i was at my shop, so i used brake cleaner to clean everything and 3 coats of VHT flame proof flat black spray paint. no sanding, ive never needed to do this in all the years ive done it, many people say you have to but i dont. ive never had a problem with flaking, burning, anything doing it my way. you can sand if you want. best thing about not sanding is that if you want to revert back to polished, just strip the paint. it took about 2 1/2 hours, and that includes a very uncomfortable ride to advance auto parts to buy another can of paint, without mufflers... ouch. my brain was almost liquified.
