Hi,

Have a plastic bucket that I wish to place in the garden.
Would like to paint it.

Have no idea what type of plastic, but fairly smooth surface.

Undoubtedly, it'll require some kind of primer first.

Any thoughts on type and brand of primer, and also what type of paint
to use ?

Or, is painting plastic, and actually getting it to stick long term, a
pretty much hopeless task ?

Thanks,
Bob



automotive store or section of Wal-Mart,they have spray primers
specifically for painting plastic.You will have to use top coats from the
same supplier as the primer for compatibility,or test on scrap first.
