Do multiple thin coats rather than fully spraying in one go, don't let each coat fully dry before the next coat so the paint has something to stick to.
If you try do it in one hit your bound to end up with the paint running and it becomes a chore if that happens.
Will be doing mine in the summer, going from gold to anthracite/ gunmetal grey.
