I agree with the others if it ain't right paint it white.
Tractor supply has gallons for 30.00 polyurethane based.

On the bucket truck make sure you don't paint the fiberglass sections they require a special paint. You can usually compound them out.

Painting them destroys the Di - electric strength of the fiberglass. Making your insulated boom into an aluminum ladder. Not good around power lines.
Imron makes a special paint but its expensive. 2000 is not bad for that size truck.

Your bucket is on an indestructible chassis especially if there's a DT466 under the hood. Much better than the crap they offer nowadays . The unit looks a little long in the tooth though. Aerial lift of Connecticut or some other brand ??

Nice little truck.
