    The rails on my board are a little faded and I just wanted to paint them to give it a better look how should I go about this and what kind of paint to use ?
    Thanks

    Lightly sand the rail
    tape off where you don't want to spray with masking tape
    Use Krylon Fusion spray, works well
    peel tape immediately
    after color dries spray krylon acrylic clear coat to seal and help prevent chipping off.

    Same technique goes for doing artwork with Posca Pens on a board
