How well would it work to paint over black plastic drums? These will be used to plant garden plants in so they will be out in the weather year around.

I used it to paint a plastic slide that has been out in the weather all year long. My grandchildren played on the slides again this weekend and I noticed that the paint had held up very nicely. However, there were some tiny places that the paint had come off but can easily be touched up.

As Krylon Fusion is advertised as "Bonds to Plastic" and "The no-prep, superbond paint for Plastic", I'd guess that it should work well on 'plastic drums' used for outdoor garden planters. I used Krylon Fusion to paint Trangia (polythene) fuel bottles (originally red) with green Fusion paint, even after online research told me "paint would not stick to polythene." I wanted to visually distinguish 'alcohol fuel bottles' from 'coleman fuel bottles'. Due to the polythene material, I allowed a longer (overnight) drying time, and applied two coats. I've been very pleased and impressed with the results, and the paint seems to be fairly resistant to fuel that spills onto the paint. I don't know your plastic drum composition, but I'd guess Krylon Fusion should work pretty well for your use and outdoor environment.

they're about 12" high so would work for small plants. They do tend to lift in strong winds so you may have to set them in lower and push some dirt up onto the plastic to keep them from getting away.

It can be used for outdoor projects if you use a clear varnish protective coating. My husband makes rain gauges and birdhouses that hold up well, if using a clear varnish coating.

They are plastic, you could paint them if you want. Menards sells spray paint for plastic

I painted the pieces black with spray paint made for plastics. turned out pretty good

I can't say for sure that leaving them out in winter would damage them or not as I haven't tried it. The plastic that the planters are made of seem to be both sturdy and somewhat flexible, not a brittle kind of plastic. I think that as long as the planters are not filled with a frozen soil or with frozen snow, they should be okay. But I would be very careful to not drop them when they are cold and to let them thaw out slowly on the off-chance that they do become brittle and break easily.

Like all herbicides, the plant had to be active to absorb the painted material. I suspect that it would not work very well if it is super cold.

Yes. I have used it on a car window and black chalkboard and you can see it clearly either way. I wouldn't see why a black plastic pot would be any different.

They just come in small black greenhouse production pots. Not too attractive. You could replant them into nicer 2" to 3" planters, but it would probably be easier to make a decorative wrap with foil or paper using the existing planter, and tie with some nice ribbon. A nice wide decorative ribbon might work all by itself. Your florist could probably give you some good ideas.

Any plastic paint (like plasti dip) that resists a little heat would do. Just make sure it's made for plastic.

I sprayed mine with polyurethane to cover up some mess ups.. worked out real well... so I assume you could paint it as well..

I believe the paint would wear/chip off due to weather. These rocks are great. And no paint to get all over you.

Im not sure, I wouldn't recommend it. The material is designed to be weather and sun resistant. So painting it would defeat the purpose. They still look great after two seasons, but they are stored in a shed during the Winter.

The surface is pretty smooth and would not take paint well. However, if you could find a primer that would bond with plastic well, then I bet you could paint it.

I would not put them on painted surfaces especially if you intend to leave them on for a period of time. Cricut makes a removable vinyl that I have used successfully.

I have not tried as the four I have built were for storage areas or closets and I was fine with the black resin. I suppose if you bought a quality plastic paint and painted them up before hand that it could be done easy enough.

I did not try, but I think it is a good idea. It should work, since the paint will probably not disturb/change, e.g. the thickness of the material. Good luck!
