I have used Krylon Fusion for many years and spray can paints in general for over five decades. The most important thing to do in my experience is SHAKE that can for a good long time. And then some more, to ensure all the settled pigments are back in solution. Sputtering, spitting, clogging of a new can is caused by unshaken settled solids messing up the spray tip. Please don't try to test spray until after thorough shaking. Shake and shake and take a break and shake some more. This review turns general praise justified by long personal experience with Fusion. Most recently, the cruiser bike frame painted matte burgundy with Krylon Fusion last month looks like a pro paint job, even though it was done out of doors under the eave of the house, hung from a leaned ladder. Krylon Fusion is truly unique with exceptional qualities of relative toughness and quick initial dry and fast, one-week ultimate cure combined. Weathering life against sunlight, we should understand, is primarily dependent on pigment color; Krylon engineers can inform best on that topic. No matter the spray paint brand, some colors withstand UV exposure better than others. I find that the Fusion spray can today is their best spraying can ever. Also valuable to me is Fusion's quick dry: any overspray mist settles to the ground virtually dry, easy to clean up. And when we spray when humidity is low, in still air, at room temperature, and remember to keep the can moving over the dust-free clean dry surface, a professionally smooth and beautiful result is assured. It's so easy to spray Fusion, which truly lives up to its name, bonding uniquely well when Krylon directions are followed. I like to say that Krylon has always presented innovative, need-specific, well thought-out-of-the-box products. Now (said with a grin) I only wish Krylon would make a universal spray can shaker-upper for we, the home users of all brands of spray can paints. Yep, it's true, all spray paint brands spray best--and none better than Krylon--when "there's a whole lot of shakin' goin' on Well, I said shake, baby, shake I said shake, baby, shake I said shake it, baby, shake it And then shake, baby, shake Come on over, whole lotta shakin' goin' on Oh, let's go!" (quoted Jerry Lee Lewis lyric, Whole Lot of Shakin' Goin' On, copyright of its owner, provided here for educational purposes only) "Alright!"
I used the krylon Fusion paint in satin white to paint over my yellowed melamine cabinet doors in my bathroom. The paint went on evenly, with little effort, and has a great satin, durable finish. My 3 and 5 year old are constantly putting the finish to the test-- it's been a year and still holding strong! I achieved an even coverage with all 6 pieces in 2 coats. I highly recommend this product. I'm currently removing the thermofoil covering off my kitChen doors and painting the underlying MDF with colormaster primer then paint.
I was skeptical about how well spray paint would stick to plastic. I had a tool box that I liked but it was old, ugly, orange and faded. Put some of this stuff on it and it looks great. Beautiful smooth finish, couldn't be happier!
I have plenty of options for painting. I use an HVLP gun, there are plenty of rattle can choices,and have messed with epoxies, but I really like Fusion. Its so easy to use, lays down very smoothly, and takes heat well. I originally used it on my Hemi's engine covers, which deal with 300+ degree heat and its been holding up for years. Now I'm using it on my pickups radiator shroud and coil cover and expect the same result. No idea why nobody else makes Plastic paint, but this stuff is a winner.
I would like to start off by saying spraying paint requires technique. If you haven't done it before you need to buy enough paint to practice on something. That said, Krylon spray pains have by far the best nozzle available on a spray can. Instead of spraying a circle like every other canned spray paint, their nozzle sprays a thin vertical oval. The spray itself is also much finer. This is much closer to the performance of an actual spray rig and allows for a much more even coverage and better end result. Because the spray mist is so fine and because Krylon dries fast you do need to spray a little closer to the surface than you would with ordinary canned spray paints. Spraying from too far away could be a possible cause for some of the negative reviews regarding a powdery finish. If you spray from too far away some of the paint mist will actually dry on its' way to the surface you're painting creating paint "dust". You also need to spray evenly, which this tip makes easy with just a little practice. Additionally you will need to cover the surface being painted by spraying several light coats; you should be able to see through the first couple of coats. Since Krylon has such an excellent, fast drying time this can be accomplished pretty quickly. Spraying too heavily is likely the cause for some of the other negative reviews concerning running paint. I would also add that you should turn the can upside down and clear the nozzle by pressing until there is no paint left in the spray after each coat; this will prevent the nozzle from getting fouled with dry paint which could explain the "eggshell" reviews. Finally, though sanding and priming are not needed with this paint, the surface still must be clean. Follow the instructions on the can regarding this. As a side, surface imperfections will show through ANY spray job so sand and prep accordingly if you have imperfections and desire a smooth outcome. SO... with proper technique this paint will provide a professional looking finish that adheres very well to plastics. You will not find a better finish without going full out pro with a spray rig and even then the difference will likely be negligible. No other canned spray paint can even come close. For those curious, I most recently painted the sun bleached plastic hatch covers on a kayak I purchased second hand; with stellar results I might add.
Went on smooth. I painted some ivory Heath-Zenith dimmers in the media room to match the new gray wall outlets and switches. KRYLON: Please update your color swatches so when you hover over them you get the name or put the name under your swatches. It is very confusing trying to get the name, also you seem to not have a dark gray in FUSION FOR PLASTIC.
I have a set of steel rims on my truck that I painted with Krylon Fusion 2 years ago. I prepped the surfaces by sandblasting, degreasing, rinsing off with water and air drying. Applied a coat of paint every fifteen minutes until I had 4 coats dried, then finished them with a can of Krylon matte clearcoat. After two years of street and off-road driving the rims still look like they were professionally done with no chips or scratches in the paint. I also did a camoflauge finish on an AR-15 with the same results. My prep for the plastics and aluminum parts on the rifle consisted of degreaser and water to rinse off. Can't say enough good things about this paint.
I've been using Krylon Fusion now for a couple of years now and I mostly use it to paint automotive engine covers and smaller plastic underhood plastic pieces. Part prep is very simple, just wash with soap and water to remove most of the dirt, then spray with a static repellant like Static Guard, then a good wipe down with paint thinner. As soon as the paint thinner dries, I paint the parts. If the parts are small enough, I throw them in my dedicated paint drying oven at 175F for 4 hours (when the 4 hours is up, I turn the oven off and let the parts and the oven cool off). This greatly accelerates the full cure time and the parts can go right into service! Sticks extremely well to difficult to work with plastics like polypropylene and polycarbonate, particularly after using the heat cure. Larger pieces that can't be baked are left in the sun for a few hours but are left to sit for 7 days before going into service. Another current project I am using them on is the restoration of some fibreglass Herman Miller Eames chairs. After sitting outside 20 years, a new finish is going to breath new life into these classic works of art! I've had some of the typical "issues" that people report like the "dusting", which for any paint that isn't applied in a spray booth, to be a normal occurrence. Also, I occasionally have issues with the rough finishes but I attribute that to poor paint environment, like the temperature/humidity being too high, or painting in direct sunlight. For the Herman Miller chairs, I fully expected to do a final wet sanding after I was done especially after painting the insides of the chairs which proved to be more difficult than I thought. Also, the coverage may not be exactly what the can says, coverage amount on the can is like a speed limit, it's a suggestion under ideal conditions! I'd suggest using a clip on spray handle and if possible always keep the can and the piece you are working with vertical. You can paint items horizontally (flat) but this is more difficult and your results may vary...and you will use way more paint spraying horizontally.
cleaned plastic motorcycle panels brand new like manufactor said followed directions on can waited a day to install paint just peels off by hand
Wanted to freshen up some resin planters. Took outside & set up to paint. Mostly made a cloud of paint with very little coverage of item. Continued trying different techniques. Nothng really worked. Ended up with very uneven coverage. Will probably try something I can brush on.
