Which paint to use for Drums??

I know alot of people have painted their calipers with the Dupli-Color kit. I'm going to do this too, but I also want to paint the rear drums. I plan on painting the rear drums black, but I don't know which paint to buy and use. Should I get a another Dupli-Color kit and paint the drums black, or should I use some regular spray paint?

I already painted my calipers Red

Make sure you thoroughly scrape that rust **** off before you paint your drums though, i plan on using a wire brush and a good penetrating oil

paint

I went to Napa and got them to mix a pint of paint to match my car. I sanded down the drums and calipers and brushed on the paint. Painted them last summer, and its still on there.

What colour is your car? If it's anything but black post a pic! I'm sure we'd all like to see it.

black, and only black

drums are not a show piece so please don't try to show them off

black will hide the rust without making them stand out...
