The other option to piano black *paint* is piano black laminate.
A sheet of high quality piano black laminate goes for about $150, and can typically be shipped directly to your door (it comes rolled up). You'll need quality contact cement, roller to apply the cement, and a hard rubber roller to roll out any air bubbles. Then you'll need a laminate trimmer bit for your router, or a mini-router that's made for laminate trimming.
Once your done, you'll have a solid, scratch resistant piano black finish, but you'll have black plastic looking corners (from trimming the laminate with the router). I've done this a few times over the years, and it's always floored everyone how nice it looked.
