Don't use it. I bought some thinking "hey its for plastic, it should work" and was wrong. Although it sticks to the lexan well, it won't flex along with the body. Its just a matter of time before it starts to flake off too.

seems to be working fine for me..

it is painted from the outside, because the lexan pink paint is flaking off on the inside.. I have used fusion allot, scuff the surface well and paint, prep is the key to any paint..

I haven't painted lexan with it but I have had good luck with it on other plastic surfaces.
