New Paint for Plastics

Its called Fusion, and krylon claims it designed just for plastics.
Anybody tried this on Lexan yet??
Had any good luck with it?
Thanks DC

It's not particularly new.. It's been out for a few years, but it works MEDIOCRE at best on Lexan. I painted a Silverado body with it and the krylon chipped off just as easy as a standard can of spray paint.

I'd suggest getting some Pactra Spray cans from the hobby shop that are tailored for lexan. The paint will last way longer, and remain flexible (so it doesn't chip off as easy)

Standard spray paint and krylon fusion chip off if you look at them sideways.

Thanks, just a thought.
I won't waste my money.

Tried it too myself and really was a wasted try. It works super on Nylon wheels though, have had good results in that respect.... I just wait till the can is almost empty, drain out the air and transfer the paint from the can to a bottle and shoot it thru a airbrush...
