BigHank clued me onto Colorbond spray paint (made for car repairs to vinyl and plastic)- stuff is incredible for a primer coat- all my recent customs have a colorbond basecoat and every paint has stuck to it perfectly- acrylics are best, but Testors' enamels ar the best for metallic details, like on my Black Knight's gold details- super reflective.

For acrylics, get the smaller tube containers for like a buck each at Michaels arts and crafts- they carry a brand of acryllic metallic paint that blows me away- my Talon custom is and my repainted Iron Man customs are all one-dollar metallic colors.
