Everyone keeps asking for "tricks" to paint the plastic bodywork on XB's. I painted my patio furniture with Krylon Fusion (formulated for plastic)this spring. Finish is pretty good and doesn't peel if prepped correctly. anyone tried this on XB body panels? Goes w/out saying the finish isn't "automotive" quality, but then I dont "show" my bike, I ride it.I'm seriously considering it.

I did try it on some severely damaged plastic (wrecked Suzuki). It did not hold up well at all. I did not prep the plastic all that great - but I am not sure it would have mattered. Of course, YMMV. Please post pics after you get it done!
