I have done this. Use Levine automotive. They will put arctic silver in a can for you. The also sell clear coats. Use high build primer; it fills in the texture on the oem parts. Sand the primer smooth & scuff sand w/ 320 prior to color coat. Let primer degass & dry for a week before sanding.

Do all coats of clear and color the same day. Do two coats color and three coats clear, waiting an hour between each coat. Use a clear coat that has uv protectant built in.

After all coats are applied, wait two weeks (don't cheat!!) before a wet sand, polish and wax.
