Product Information

The best primer for plastic is either Zinsser BIN or Rust Oleum’s Specialty Plastic Primer. What’s the way to paint a plastic loft hatch to match the same colour as the ceiling (white)? You should do your spraying outside and wear a mask while doing so. You do not want to be breathing in any paint -goggles are also a good idea. Stand Protect – Set up your paint area; you need somewhere clean to rest the plastic object while it is drying. If it is a plastic fixture in your home, lay down protective sheeting on the floor or old newspaper beneath and around it. No, it does not stop bleeding. Bleeding must be stopped, by locally applied pressure, before spray application.

As for the form of paint, most paints for use on plastic are spray paints, which do a good job of laying down an even coat of color over materials with smooth surfaces such as plastic. Still, you can opt for brush-on paints for plastic if you prefer.

Packaging

So how do you get an even finish on plastic? What preparation do you need to do to the surface before painting? Is it better to brush, roller or spray plastic? As with any painting, start with preparing a clean and residue-free surface. Chemicals on the surface of the plastic resist any paint, even plastic-specific paints. Sanding the plastic creates more surface area and gives the paint something to cling to. To extend the life of your painted plastic, you need to do two things. First, ensure that the paint you use doesn't require a separate coat of primer—if it does, make sure you prime the object before applying paint. Second, apply a clear sealant to the plastic once the paint has completely dried. That provides an extra layer of protection against the elements and wear and tear.

Make a DIY spray paint booth. A spray paint booth protects surrounding areas from overspray, and protects the painted item from dust and dirt when it’s still wet. For smaller projects, you can make your own simple spray paint booth with a box and a pair of scissors: Before using a spray, be it primer or paint, shake the can well before use. Spray cans combine a thinner, the paint, and the propellant. These chemicals will separate in the spray can over time, and the paint will fall, congeal, and cling to the metal base.Plastics do not weather well, and this paint protects from acids, moisture, heat, and vibrations. The rubber coating is also ideal where you want a non-slip plastic, such as the handles of garden tools.
