Paint for Crab Floats?

I've got a batch of foam crab floats that need repainting.

I'd like to use a bright flourescent color.

Does anyone know a brand name of paint and/or a place to buy the stuff that would do a really good, durable job on these?

There is a new product on the market called "Fusion" which is a spray paint for plastic. I used it as a primer for my crab floats and then painted them the color I wanted. Worked GREAT!

You can buy the paint "primer" at any Ace Hardware Store or FM.

"Fusion" is made by Krylon and is designed to bond to plastic. I haven't tried it yet, but was suprised to see it while shopping for rattle can's the other day. Looks like it could be a winner. :wink:

I got it from englund Marine in Newport, but Im sure other marine supply stores have it. a little more costly than other paints/coatings, but youll never paint them again. The stuff is actually made for PVC inflated floats, but works great on foam, use a non-solvent primer.
