What sort of paint sticks to a hard plastic?

Question

I am trying to paint my rubik's cube, the stickers are done for. And I have tried fabric paint, and that worked alright, but it didn't stay on to well.

i know spray paint would work, but that would be expensive. not to mention i'd only use about 5% of each can. unless... do they have mini cans of spray paint??

what else would work?

Answer 1

Model car paint is made for plastic. Some come in spray, they also come in little bitty bottles that you put on with a brush.  You have to get paint thinner to clean up the brushes between colors.

Answer 2

the best solution is to buy the tiles from cubesmith.com.

But if you want to paint it, I wouldn't suggest it. It would be messy and any paint would come off after a few hours of cubing. Perhaps make your own vinyl stickers?

Answer 3

Those little bottles of model paint would work. Find them at a hobby shop.
