[DML] Headlight bracket question

[Enid/Jeremiah <hispanicangeleyes@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hey everyone.

I'm going to take out the "L" shaped headlight
brackets and repaint them as they are a bit faded and
should be repainted for this summer's many upcoming
car shows.  My question: I've never really painted
anything in terms of outside the engine.  If I want to
do this right and make it look good and last, can
anyone give me a quick rundown on what to do. 
Obviously clean the brackets and make sure the
surfaces are free of dirt and grease with alcohol or
lacquer thinner.  Then what..?  Just paint?  Use
primers then paint?  CAUTION: Newbie painter present.


I know - stupid question, but I want to do this right.
 Besides, if you don't ask, how are you supposed to
learn?  

Jeremiah
