you can spray paint anything you want. i dont recommend doing seats, grips or tires however. hubs are fine spin it and shoot. easiest way to do it

Just take the bearings out & cover the bearing seats with tape & you'll be fine. I sprayed my cassette hub cause it didn't come in white and I just took the bearings out, covered the seats, took the driver out & covered the ratchet ring too, and stuck a rod with a washer fixed to the bottom through it to hold it, then hung it by that
