Painting ABS plastic seat pan???

[oxford]

I tried some of the Krylon spray paint made specifically for plastic on Lexan. It didn't stick. I complained to Krylon and they sent me a big box of the same stuff that didn't work. Like 20 cans of spray paint. I appreciated the effort but...

I've had good luck with Krylon fusion paint in the past.  Black plastic trim on cars and modern dirtbike plastics.

On the dirt bike plastics it even held up decent to branches and whatnot in the woods.  It didn't hold up to high rub areas like where boots/legs rubbed on it.

I just crudely painted a plastic fender for my bike so I dont know how well it would hold up but I just scuffed it up, put glazing putty on some spots, and sprayed it with some old black paint I had, still have some spots to sand.
As far as Krylon goes, I have Krylon's John Deer Yellow on my bike. Had some issues but I think that was just poor prep I just have it cleared with 2k and its holding up decent, really any spot falling apart is my fault.

That's the secret for a really good DIY paintjob, especially on cycle tanks.  It will stand up to gas splashes, unlike standard clear.

I did a repair on an ABS fairing with a Duplicolor base and SprayMax 2K gloss clear - and I was impressed.  The clear needs a good amount to flow, but it did flow nicely and never dulled.

I've also used the SprayMax 2K satin black on a few parts I couldn't powder coat.

I'm laying down the high fill primer now. Took a bit of time to prime, then use glazing putty, prime, putty, over and over. I'm hoping to block it tomorrow or Tuesday, then lay down the black base. Tape, then lay down the red and clear. The weather here has been the pits, so it's slow going. Plus, I'm taking my time with the drying process. Last time i did all pretty fast and i might have not let certain elements dry enough.

What type of primer and paint did you use on it?

[LMS]

All rattle can. Sem primers, SprayMax base and clear.

Is that 1k or 2k paint?
