Hey there, new to the forum, just had a few questions. I have some stainless steel football signs that I made in work, selling them on ebay at the moment, sold a lot but a few buyers have asked if I sold them already sprayed. So was thinking about spraying a few to see if they sell better, here is a link of one I'm selling at the moment.

want them in red but want them to look decent and not tacky, I have never used spray paint for this sort of stuff so could you tell me what I'd need to buyer and what the best method of doing this.
Well he is a deceptive sneaky coot, if he is clever enough to make his thingos he would be capable of figuring out how to paint them. When I see this sort of stuff it makes me determined not to get it from the sneaky person even if I wanted it.
I wouldn't bother, you are reproducing a trade mark and selling it. Football clubs get very sniffy about that sort of thing and regularly patrol ebay looking for such sales. You will probably be getting a letter from their solicitors one day soon inviting you to give them money.
