Gloss Black
I've tried Rustoleaum, Krylon, could of other. 
Like to try something new and better, but not over the top eg. 2K 2-part stuff
Opinions appreciated, thanks!

In the UK the most popular frame coating after powder coat seems to be Simonize Tough Black- gloss.  In a rattle can.

I can vouch from painting smaller bits that it is indeed tough, black and gloss ( or satin for engine covers and cylinders).

If you are in the US I dunno the equivalent, but it will be Acrylic based.
