I used Krylon Fusion and the stuff is amazing. A few coats makes ANY portable shine :wink: . Sanding probably isn't the best idea, unless you want a rough, grainy portable. A little paint primer never hurts, then when that's dry follow up with a quick wipe down of rubbing alcohol. Should look great.
