Painting interior plastics (not vinyl) -- anyone know what paint to use that will stick well?

dude you gotta go out and get the neww fusions by krylon, it works awesome, it is especially made for plastic, i have used the red, the black and the blue, it is patriot blue, very similar to wrc blue, the black was a gloss black, i used it on the chrome for my headlights, the red i used on a peice of abs plastic that i used for a cai, and i will post a pic of the blue for you. it works real nice all of the paints,
but the number one thing to do is find a place with no air movement, and dust, the wipe the plastic down real good with paint thinner. hit it up with a hair dryer first warm up the plastic then paint it, spray lightly at first then do a couple of nice thin layer use the hair dryer in bettween, it turns out real nice like there is a clear coat on it.
and let them dry for like 2 days, the paint is still kinda soft after a day of drying.
