I used "Melmine" or Melmack" (or some such name) that I got form Canadian Tire. It was reputed to be tough paint. I took a door in to have the paint "computer matched", they got close but I had to fiddle with the colour to get it right (gray in my case). Be sure to wash and prep the surface if you want the paint to "stick". I used a foam mini-roller for the applications. Also, I found that "Majik" or "Majic" shoe paint works very well, and it's in spray cans. Its tough and takes some bending on rubber/plastic parts. These come in many colours. Try your local shoe repair shop. Good luck. Malcolm
