i would advise against spray paint unless you're going for the 'beater' look.... i spray painted mine, complete with sanding, primer, multiple layers of paint, and clear coat.... and the Fer still chipped very easily, and its really hard to get the paint even and the clear coat even.... so, basically it looked like ass. i then had it powder coated.

a buddy of mine paints bikes professionally and did my trials bike for me. it came out looking amazing and i recommend a professional do it if you want it to look good.
