Well, I live in a 2 apt duplex on the corner in Philadelphia and the fence is really bad.

It's like a dulled out silver.

I want to re-paint it silver but never did this before and need some suggestions.

What is the best paint that would last long and keeps its nice coat?

Best way to paint it? Tried spray painting it last year. lol bad idea.

Should I do it soon while the weather is spring-ish? Or wait till it gets hotter so it dries quicker.

Any suggestions are appreciated!
