Surely a VHT paint would be a good option, little bit of WD on a rag - wipe the shiny bits moist with that, spray the colour on and wipe off the excess that hasn't stuck?

i have to do this to mine too, i was going to mask up the outside, and spray from behind. you will see the brush strokes if you brush it.
