Yeah, that sh works great guys. Tried it on the back of a panel piece this afternoon, less than 30 minutes entirely dried and isn't rubbing off. If you can give me some tests(practical tests that might occur in a car to the original stuff) that isn't panel damaging(It IS going back in at some point, and while no one but me sees the back, I'd like to keep it intact) then I'll try it for ya and let ya know.

I've been using Krylon Fusion on my work for a year or so now... easily my favorite spray paint... for anything, FG or MDF or whatever. I love the nozzle on that can ... the paint seems to go on wayy smoother than any other brand of spray paint I've tried...and like the name suggests it sticks on *everything*

I have a test for you. Can you slightly twist the panel and tell me if it cracks?

Twisted, bent, carried, hauled, I've taken it around the house, no problems. Even higher gloss than my current plastic.

Benny, I'd say it has a lot to do with the prep before it... Did you do a lot of applications or only a few? What was the color of the material it went onto? Maybe start with a darker primer or something? (Or maybe like a black fusion covering first then switch it over to the blue when it is fairly dark.) If you do primer you're prolly better off painting it all out, and then you can get a metallic look.

EDIT: Sedate, the nozzle is like any other spray paint I've used...

Wha..?

The paint comes out all flat and even instead of a nasty round smudge... i dunno... i've found it goes on much better than other paints... just my experience.

The nozzle is oblonged, and I can't recall which paint material (Name wise) I used for another FG project, but it had the exact same nozzle... Had the same applicable performance as well.
