Paint in wheel wells

I would like to freshen up my well wells, they have undercoat on them and I do not want to take it off. So if i paint it what paint would you use? Spray or brush.........

Thanks
Mike

If your under coating is in good shape, what I usually do on my cars is clean the wheel wells really good, and spray them with Duplicolor ceramic semi-gloss engine paint. It sticks really good.
