I suggest "satin" black. It has a slight sheen to it that is not as porous as flat black. It will give a fresh clean look that look that will endure well. Take your time and mask everything that you don't want painted. For those hard to mask parts, you can use aluminum foil to wrap it with.
This is what a combo of satin and gloss paint looks like.
