Can you buy new inserts? I'm concerned, I'll ruin mine doing this stuff.

Could you send me the info on what paint you used and the steps you took to paint them. Im debating whether to paint them white or the grey you used. I have a white koup but feel the white inserts would be too much. I really like the color you used.
