    You can colour code anything. Just remove, sand, prime then repaint.

    Depends on the job you do, if you just spray the plastic straight up then it will flake, however, if you take it all off, sand it down decently, prime it two or three times with a decent trying time between, paint it to the right shade with a few layers of paint and then lacquer it thoroughly you will be fine.

    IMHO, if you allow it to dry properly and do three layers of each, then there is no reason your paint will fall off, it should easily withstand pressure washers amongst other forces!

    I agree with jeebowhite. Iv sprayed all my plastics and used the above method. 3 coats of each and it still looks as good as new.
