Rustoleum also makes a plastic primer. If you use this first, then you can paint with what ever you would like. MAKE SURE TO LET IT CURE!

Ya its paint formulated to bond to plastic, Ive used it on computer cases. an if Rallysman has used it in his tank, id say its safe to do.

no probs
you can get almost anywhere it is just a spray paint made for plastic

ABS might be a possibility but I don't know how well it will hold up over time.

I just started using ABS myself (white pvc before). I really like the black much better. I don't see why it would'nt hold up indefinately, since its designed to move water.

I considered painting the pvc but was worried about flaking over time. I've got a petsmart polyresin root thing thats lost all its paint

What I'd really like to try is coating some pieces in gravel or sand using silicone....just have'nt gotten serious about it.
