8 3/4 housing paint or powder coat

Getting ready to finish up my 8 3/4 rebuild. What is everyone doing as far as putting a finish on their housings? Paint? Powder coating? POR 15?
Any input would be greatly appreciated...

For something in between the classic DIY rattle can job and professionally done powder coat, you might consider 2K primer and topcoat for greater durability than ordinary paint. You can even buy it in aerosol cans if you don't want to try your hand with a gun.
