howdy lopsyd, dont bother with trying to paint tuffs. Dyeing them does work apparently, I havent tried it myself but others have with success. You just gotta remember you cant dye a blue set yellow. yellow to black will work but its like dyeing clothes...gotta go darker.
NOS is a sellers way of justifying hideously high and unrealistic pricing... Wink Wink Grin

Welcome to the site bud, I have 3 sets here some fool years ago did, the reason I say fool is that they are crap to clean off.
Its your call though if thats your gig, do it. What colour do u want, cause there are a few colours at coloured tuffs.com & the aussie $$ is just right to buy a set (or 2) outright.

Put up an ad here and see if you can trade black for white-I reckon black is in demand.

o clean the paint of in a caustic soda bath (then high pressure hose) or by bead blasting them both have good results
