Not so fast with the humour, sir.
I got pretty good results with some cans of black Smoothrite. The GT bars I painted in about 1988 haven't need much doing to them since, so I repeated the process on the StreetBeat. Obviously not a mirror-smooth and glossy professional finish, but good enough for a rider.

With regards to using hot water to warm up the cans, make sure its not too hot as they do go with quite a bang!!!!!!!

Good luck
