Very good.

Must be where you live.

Cause those normal paints come off plastic where I live, after a while.

And I thought that someone might like knowing about a 'real' paint for 

Plastic, and it does go on very nicely 'kinda thick' and is formulated just
for plastic.

 

Thought someone might like to know about it.

Sorry , 'any black paint' won't really stay on plastic, especially the extra
slippery kind that bumper caps are.  I posted earlier about a spray paint
that really is for plastic and really stays o there, 'Fusion' it's called,
in hardware stores.  

sorry, most black spraypaints do stay on just fine.
ive used rustoleum, krylon, you name it.  painted grilles,  mirrors, etc.
paint lasts for years and doesnt peel..  ive never used their "fusion" line
but if you want to pay a few extra bucks for paint thats up to you.

ive used rustoleum satin black and krylon satin black to do grilles and
mirrors and bumpers..  never had a problem.

Start the year off right. Easy ways to stay in shape.
