I agree HDPE can't be painted.  But if it is made of ABS (like Amphicats or PVC) Krylon Fusion spray paint works remarkably well.

What color is it? HDPE is almost impossible to paint, paint wont stick to it for very long, using a heat gun you can bring the color back to look like new again, WHIPPER had a video showing him doing it and it is pretty amazing.

Anyone here ever paint or rhino line their plastic tub 6x6's? If so what paint did you use and what was your procedure for prepping the surface?
Looking to give my toy a nice clean look post restoration!
