I want to give a thumbs up to the Krylon Fusion paint. I've been collecting some interior parts for the Thundersnake, and of course they are different colors, so I have to do the whole interior to match. The car was originally a white interior car, but I'm redoing it all in black. I picked up some of the Fusion gloss black to try out. I'd rather have a less glossy finish, but that's all I saw in the paint. I sprayed the two taillight panels already, and they came out great. This stuff requires no sanding or priming, just the usually surface prep. It claims to "bond" to plastic. It dries to the touch in 15 minutes, can be handled in an hour, and is fully chip resistant in 7 days. I've used many brands on plastic paint in the past, and this stuff works nice so far. It says it does vinyl too, so I'm going to do the door panels as well, but that's going to be last. Just wanted to share .

Glad to hear it worked well for you. I've been wanting to try it on my blue cargo area panels, but have been waiting to hear what others think about it. Did it cover the original white in one coat with no bleed thru or did it take a couple of coats?

Do they semi-gloss too? I wanted a medium gloss on my II. I ended up buying Dupont stuff. Also used the SEM stuff, it's good. Haven't seen the krylon stuff anywhere yet.

I've also been using the Krylon to change the faded factory red interior to black. It's too bad the don't offer any flat or semi-gloss finishes only gloss.

I used the fusion in satin black on my trim which is like a semi- gloss!?!?!?

Back in Dec-03 when this thread started Fusion was new and Gloss was the only finish available at the local ACE.

any more thoughts on this stuff? i want to start converting the red interior in my 91 to black.... but im scared because i tried painting plastic a few times a few years ago and it always turned out like garbage. anybody had this stuff on long enough to encounter any wear?

it works well, the preparation is everything , the fusion coats well and cleans easily.
