Ah man... just when I think I know something, BOOM! Try again

Now this prompts me to have other questions....if the axle wasn't painted until completely assembled with drums, would the axle studs then be painted black as well? How about the parts of the drum brakes that poke through the backing plate? Wheel cylinder, backing plate mounting bolts, & spring pins all would be black?
