Default Spray Paint Cans on Urethrane Lip?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has painted a urethrane lip using dupli-color spray paint? Will this particular type of paint stick to the urethrane?>

because urethane is flexible, you should use a adhesive promoter to help the paint stick. you can buy it in a spray can and i think its called bulldog or something like that.

cool, I have some of that at home lol. My next question is, could I paint a whole front bumper with those dupli-color spray cans? or would that come out getto-looking(painting a bumper black)?

yup, i'd rather take it somewhere to get painted. Either that or just use the spray cans for the color then clear coat it with the real clear coat stuff. I bought one of those spray bottles at home depot. The ones where you can put your paint in and buy the sprays individually. You can actually mix your own clear coat in there and spray it. Works decent on small areas...dunno about a full lip tho
