Use masking tape and tape off all the parts that shouldn't be painted. It's a pain in the ass, but I did it with my px 12's and they came out real nice. Cept the paint comes off, I used rustoleum and it still came off after a while.

Depending on paint it could weaken the plastic.

What is the point of painting bindings anyways.

DONT PAINT THEM
Some guy painted the jesters, I am in the process of scraping it all off. There's really no point and can only make a mess.
