Cool if it works!
I have a couple of plastic boats that I've been wanting to camouflage.
Definitely publish your results and anything you learn.

What little I can find suggests that the old adage of "you can't paint
polyethylene" was specifically tackled by Krylon with this new paint, and
that this should work rather well. Most of the problems I found on the web
seemed related to people not prepping the surface in accordance with
manufacturers instructions (you do need to clean and wipe, etc, despite it
being a no prep paint).

Any thoughts?
