If they were previously repainted with enamel you can't put laquer over them(it will lift). I had good luck with R-M Limco Supreme gloss black. It's a synthetic enamel base/clear system and won't "fade" to grey like most black enamel and shines great without buffing (laquer is dull and the area is next to impossible to get at to sand/polish) Make sure to use flex additive in the base and the clear (4 parts base or clear to 1 part flex agent) The clear also has a seperate hardener. I used it to paint my h/l buckets and to stripe my car and six years later it still looks black and shiny. Hope it's any help...

Spray paint would probably be your best bet. Unless you have painted before.
