I sanded down the PVC parts and just used flat black spray paint. After the first coat, I sanded again as on some of the brackets the paint tends to run a little bit. The second time painting I was a little more careful, and I think the result is pretty good.

I’m going to at least sand down the PVC parts before painting them, and maybe buy some adhesion promoter from an auto parts store at the recommendation of a friend, and then use some black satin Rust-oleum spraypaint that works for plastic surfaces. Is that more or less how you’re painting it?

I guess I made this post as more as an informational thing, rather than instructions. From the picture though it looks like you figured it all out.

Only thing I want to mention that I hope you figured out…I super-glued all the PVC Piping parts together.

Also, I’ll be posting an update to this post soon enough, as I’m almost done painting the bracket.

I credit this URL to everyone I talk to about it, though. I had to make a few tiny modifications, as the elbow and T-bracket didn’t seem to fit around the handle as well as it seems to in your photos, but I’ve managed to get it to where it will fit snugly. My only minor problem is that it scratches up the handle a bit, but I can think of ways to counter this.

You didn’t give very particular instructions, but I managed to replicate the mount and I’m pretty confident it will work. I needed a mount to hold my phone so I could use its GPS app for long drives, and suction cups just never worked well for me. I broke my old GPS device because the cup came loose in the middle of trips, and fell until it just stopped working. Now I’ve got a sturdy, versatile mount, and all I have to do is paint it. I’m thinking satin black.

I just wanted to thank you for the idea.
