Of course now i recommend taking the fan down and outside to spray the parts and then reinstall. Painting the ceiling blades. Take the metal arms and the bottom plate outside to spray paint. After the primer coat then use satin or semi gloss on the blades.

The paint has primer in it seems to stick well without sanding and i was afraid it would just make scratches that would show through the paint.
