We did it for our house. They don use spray paint but look like normal paint. A few coats to get the desired effect. So far 1 year on and don't see any chips even around area where the padlock is used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Forget about it. One year later paint will come off, happens to mine. Better to replace new one. My contractor did mentioned to me that WI gate paint is treated, there is a layer of protective coating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
