I only use Krylon.. (Its cheep and works great on resin)... I always apply krylon Primer first.. And after that is dry for a day I apply Light mist coats of color about every 15 min apart but no more than 30-40 min. After you build up the color apply two to three wet coats and let dry for a day or two then polishes. If you apply the coats 40+ mins apart the coat under seams to off-gas and craze the paint job. Or you will get really fine bubbles.. so the rule is a coat every 15 to 30 min or you have to wait a few days... and if you have a color coat on and need to wait a day or two (works if using a two tone paint job) always apply mist coats to soften up the dried paint under and let the older coat and new coat bond...

i found some flat black rust oleum rust reformer. does anyone know if that will mess up plastic?

It might craze or sometimes melt it, depending if you applied a primer or not, along with if the plastic seems a little "Soft" for the application.
