How to paint aluminum diamond plate and how durable?

so I'm thinking about possibly painting the aluminum "diamond" plate on the rear Kaymar bumper. It's in natural state apparently, possibly with old OEM clear coat since it's not oxidized much if at all. I may want to go satin black. A DIY job, rattle can and all. Don't want to have to go to powdercoat, bead blast etc.
Any recommendation as to specific prep (DIY etching?) and paint for something that will be stepped on a fair amount? I need to minimize costs so fancy paintshop prep agents may be out.
