I used Krylon Fusion black to repaint the plastic utility ports on my Westy. That was over a year ago and they look like they were just painted. It went on smooth and I had no problems with it. Of course, I cleaned them properly first. I also used it to paint other plastic things (non vanagon) with the same results ... also cleaned first. I like it. Mike Houlton, Maine

I did not like the colour or the finish. I then painted it over with yellow malimine(hope I spelled that right) and it lokks and fells much better. I have not had it on for long,about a month, but there is no sign of cracking or peeling. hope this helps. Patrick > |
