    Default Has anyone tried Krylon?

    It's the paint I'm seeing advertised on tv as adhering to plastic without having to sand or prime, etc. It bonds to plastic on the molecular level. It's a very attractive thought as I have some plastic things I'd like to paint, but don't want to take the time to sand, etc. I know...they are marketing directly to lazy folk like me! Anyway, anyone heard of it or use it?

    Amy, it works quite well, we redid some chairs for MIL last week and they turned out very nice.
    Best of luck to you.

    It works great! Use thin even coats. Now I haven't tried it on slick plastic, like those resin chairs, but I think if you followed the directions it'd turn out great!

    I haven't tried it, but that copmmercial has me sold as well. Everytime I see it, I immediately begin to think about what I could paint. If you do, please let us know how it works.

    I wonder how expensive it is?

    I have a friend who used it on her plastic outdoor shutters and she said it worked wonderful.
