painting plastic , have you? how did you? other

[rebelbuggy]

i just wondered if anyone painted there plastic I am sick of red everyone has red, my buddy done silver and it looks really good
I thought about silver or maybe blue.... but I dont want the paint to chip when it gets bent and stuff....

what could you do to make sure it would stay.....

I would wet sand it then primer it then paint the color I wanted then clear coat it... that should last for a while wouldnt it...

My buddy painted on and it looks like crap now after about 2 yrs..

I wont have this plastic that long I hope I want to buy new when I can..

Rebel,there is a somewhat new product called "bulldog adhesion promotor"This product is wicked,it makes paint stick to anything,Chrome,fiberglass,plastic,aluminum,basica lly anything...It comes in spray cans or quarts,ect...It comes in clear or base black.It also real reasonable on price also,wet sand your plastic,shoot bulldog,wet sand lightly again,shoot desired color,clear..YOu should be a happy camper....Look into that product though you will be happy.....Good luck
