It all depends on the details. I used a paint for plastic to use on a

type of plastic. It was a food storage container with a seal ring
commonly available in stores. Just a data point for what it is worth.


If you are talking about 'Tupperware' type containers, that plastic
is the lowest grade available. It won't hold paint, and common adhesives
won't stick to it.

They're food grade. Nothing sticks to polythene unless you torch it first or weld it.
