Krylon Fusion spray paint

rkeith · Jun 30th, 2003, 04:00 PM

So I just finished watching a commercial for Krylon Fusion spray paint. Apparently the paint works by forming a bond with the molecules in the plastic. Krylon claims the great thing about this paint is that priming and sanding are not necessary. Just spray and dry.
Yada, yada, yada.... Anyways, my question is has anyone used/seen this stuff yet? Is it a high temp paint? If so, do you think this paint would work on my 200's valve cover?

the paint needs primer, i tried using it on my interior, and it bubbles up, much like regular paint does on plastic, without sanding and primering. and it isnt a high temp paint, so i wouldnt use it on your valve cover. go with duplicolor engine paint, i think you will be better off with that, or even high temp grill paint

I've seen the commercial and the stuff at the store. If it came in more colors, I woulda tried it, but I ended up using duplicolor wheel paint for the color. The commercial says no sanding, no primer. No, it is not high temp. I would still sand the pieces either way ne wayz b/c I hate that fake wrinkle look.

go4, you might have done the coats too thick.

maybe, i think it still sucks though, since it peels right off
