Painting rear bumper

Ok...I have this fancy new Jayco Owners Forum sticker I need to add to the rear bumper of my camper.

I have a 2009 and the bumper is ready for a little refresh on the paint. What make, type, brand, etc of paint have you found holds up the best?

I've gotten great results from using Rust-Oleum brand, High Performance Protective Enamel, oil-based black paint. Applied it with one of those small 2" rollers on the A-frame, frame, and rear bumper. The number on my paint can is V7579.

John Deere Blitz Black is a shiny/flat black it's tough paint, if you want more shine there is also a medium gloss.

X3.
After a good sanding, I apply two coats.
I use the small foam roller to apply. When dry, it looks as if it were sprayed on.

POR-15. Do it with that and you'll never need to do it again.
