Painting Vinyl!?

  javeryh, I couldn't agree with you more...Settling would be wrong.


Turnarcades:
I'm curious to know why they are blue in the first place. Did you inspect them? It could just be an anti-scratch film covering the true paint/laminate/vinyl underneath.

bkenobi:
Actually, that's a good guess!  Look at the second from the left.  Half of the blue is gone to show that there's a monitor back there.  It's possible they used the same material for the whole thing.

Kayden:
If they actually are vinyl coated, you could use Krylon Fusion spray paint.  It chemically bonds to plastics and works pretty well.  I wouldn't recommend rolling on wall paint  :laugh:

Alternatively, just cover the whole thing in stickers/ vinyl artwork.

Billy_Goatfeet:


  Yep, I did inspect them, the blue on the wood surfaces is vinyl for sure.  You are both correct that there us a blue anti-scratch coating on the plexiglass covering the monitor and the marquee (which is not seen in the photo).   Would another layer of black vinyl work overtop?  Would it adhere and would it stick out past the t-molding?  I will be creating art for the rest of it so I could put it right over top.   I have a great connection at a print shop so I can get stuff printed to vinyl for peanuts.   Considering the price, I don't care what colour it is at this point, a good deal is a good deal.
