painting your plastics???

[shok47]

Has anyone ever painted their plastics?? There is not much hard spots to get into for prepping, and I would like a new color.

if you paint your plastic, the first time u bump into a tree or hit anything the paint will chip off leaving the old color showing through. its not a vary good idea to paint them unless you drag race or something like that where the plastic is never touched. if you are goin to paint it anyway, the best paint to use would be krylon plastic paint. its suppose to etch into the plastic somehow and stick better than any other paint.

When i painted the plastic on my blaster it worn off were my knees rubbed the gas tank. It looked good until a day of ridding then the purple was showing through.
