Thanks for the replies, guys.

War_Wagon: that sounds like my previous painting experience (though with enamel).

Old Mech: ditto, hope all goes well tomorrow.

I would have rolled/brushed all of this, but the base is metallic, so it doesn't work very well.

pgfpro: I'll go check the can right now, thanks. Back in a flash...
