It was actually a pretty simple process.
After removing the boards and Stainless, I Belt Sanded each piece with 120 Grit until smooth.
I then applied 3 coats of Semi Gloss Black Duplicolor right out of a rattle can and followed that up with 3 coats of Polyurethane (Rattle Can also) and you're done. I forgot to mention that I used Scotch-Brite in between each of the 6 coats and a tack cloth to wipe clean before I sprayed the following coat.
I polished all of my Stainless with a Metal Polish I use on my Harley using one of those Meguiar's Foam attachments made for polishing wheels on a Drill.
I was very pleased with the outcome and it's an easy repair if it get's a bad scratch in it. Just spray a little of each of the Black and Poly on the affected area and you are good as new!!!!
