1. strip the marker of all accessories, internals etc...down to just the clamshells 2. lightly sand the existing finish with 220 grit sandpaper or higher
3. wipe off dust and clean the surface you are going to paint with laquer thinner to completely get any/all grime off of the marker
4. tape off the internal parts of the marker-NO PAINT HERE
5. spray away
6. let dry (depending on the humidity/temp) for at least an hour
when i painted my 98, i put a really thin layer of motor oil on the "98 Custom" raised letters on the side of the marker because i wanted them to stand out and not be painted. after the paint had dried i just wiped the oil/paint mix off of the letters and all was good! good luck.
