Ron I drill the rivets out so I can paint the base along with the can itself that makes it a bit easier than taping off the bakelite material. Then after installing the new caps I pop in two rivets and install the upper portion back on the lower portion and bolt it back to the chassis. If you use "chrome paint" it looks close to the original plating.
