My parents just bought me a new aluminum bike, but it came in the color green which i hate. I want an all blacked out bike, so how would I go about painting a bike that already has brand spanking new paint on it. I really don't want to spend over 60 bucks on it, but I want it to look good. Any money I can save would be nice.

Is it possible to get a flat black matte look? I really want a flat black matte look that will last in the rain because it rains a lot where I live. What paint stripper or sanding paper should I use? I have no sanding tools. And what paint would work best for my situation? Thank you soo much for your time!
