I just cleaned it with acetone.  No primer or anything.  I may have some
pictures on my site, but I doubt you'd be able to see anything in the
pictures anyway.  It is a semi-gloss black.  I think that is the only
color they have.

Hey Dave,
Will definitely check that.  What did you do to prep before 
painting?  Did you put down a primer, sand etc?  I'd definitely like 
to see a pic if you got one.  Also, do they have different colors?  
Like gloss black?  Or was yours more of a flat black or semi-gloss?
Thanks,
Brandon
