              or brown to black

A buddy of mine who lives in Lake Tahoe painted the white plastic "fender flares" black on his cabrilolet with this paint for plastic. It adhered well and looks pretty darn good-you can't tell they've been painted. Well except, problem is with the snow and sand of the winter some of the paint got knocked off the rear fender flares. But it didn't peel, just kind of got sand blasted off. I'm guessing this wouldn't be a problem with interior parts if drive with the doors closed in winter.
