Replying to Custom Pivots

I just copped some fresh on3ps and am trying to customize some pivots to match. I’ve found some info about customizing them but most of it is hydro dipping. Has anyone done this and does it work with spray paint or would I need some special paint, I just don’t want to mess up the bindings. Also if anyone has some customs do they chip and scratch a ton after a while. And also is the process just sanding them down and adding tape to the brakes? lmk what you guys think.
