Looking for suggestions on how to re-apply and seal paint on Calimacil weapon

I just recently bartered for a Calimacil weapon, the Erik Axe. I got it from a reseller who deals in latex and foam weapons, etc.
It appears this is one of the older designs (the shaft has the runes and I'm not sure if you do that anymore) and it also seems to also have fading paint. Even when striking the axe head, or touching it, it seems the metal/grey looking paint is coming off and stains the hand slightly. Some areas look a bit faded, not too bad though
Any suggestions on re-application of the colors (black, gold, maybe some brown) and then sealing it with a clear coat to protect it from further wear? An suggestions on specific materials are most appreciated.
Thanks!

I found this a little while back when I was thinking about painting up my sword. Hope it helps.

"Ok we can attack... but if we miss, we'll hit the villagers."
"I'm willing to take that chance!"
Things I am no longer allowed to do in an RPG :
31. The backup trap handler is not whoever has the most HP at the time.
73. Not allowed to name my cudgel Ceremonial Whoopass Stick.
74. My thief's battle cry is not "Run And Live"
