Is there a particular type or brand of paint to use if I wanted to paint the plastic sport jackets/vests that came with various RA figures (RA12 Eric Bischoff or RA24 Paul Heyman for example)? Seems to me that paint would chip or scrape off pretty easily since the plastic is so flexible, so I'm rather unsure what to use.
Any help is appreciated! MSF

itll be hard for any paint to bond to the rubber since it is rubber. try to seal the paint next time after painting.kyrlon sealer works fine. i never use sealer tbh

Try using a Krylon Fusion spray paint. Its suppose to "bond" to things like plastic, rubber, metal etc. Id use it for the base of the jacket and then just use simple Acrylic paints for any fine detailing.

Try Vinyl Color Paint. It comes in spray form and bonds WAY better than the supposed plastic paints. It's very durable and the rubber parts are still bendable when dry. You can get basic colors at Walmart or any auto parts store. You can get more exotic colors at www.autobarn.comI swear by the stuff!
