Title: What kinda paint do I need? Post by: Timmy Tucker on October 06, 2010, 03:35:43 AM Wanna rattlecan the belt and sprocket covers flat black. I saw where someone did their engine side cases with grill paint, and it looked almost like a textured powdercoat. That's what I'm going for, but I wanna make sure grill paint will stick to whatever material the covers are made from. Anyone know?
Title: Re: What kinda paint do I need? Post by: ducpainter on October 06, 2010, 03:46:40 AM The best rattlecan for plastic is Krylon Fusion. It was made for just that.
Last time I checked it wasn't available in flat so I would suggest you use the fusion for you first coats and finish with the grill paint. Title: Re: What kinda paint do I need? Post by: dennisd on October 06, 2010, 05:13:51 AM They do make a Fusion in flat. It's called Krylon Camouflage. It's a non reflecting ultra flat. I used it on my fly screen. Found it at Wally World.
Title: Re: What kinda paint do I need? Post by: Artful on October 06, 2010, 05:22:34 AM Duplicolor Black Trim Paint is the best. I've used it on my exterior trim on my car and it has lasted two years without even slightly fading and no chipping. I did use Duplicolor Adhesion Promoter as well first, worked like a charm. A completely flat finish looks like a rattlecan job, this stuff looks perfect.

Its lasted two years and is still holdiIt even didnt chip when I brought it in to get serviced. Just be sure to wash everything good with dishsoap and scuff with some scotchbrite.
