Lionel 2531 Re-Paint Help ?
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, September 27, 2002 7:58 PM
Need advice on re-paint of the plastic parts of a Lionel 2531. They were scuffed very badly so I stripped the paint with long term soak in laundry detergent. Orginal paint is gone - I'm down to black plastic. Yet when I carefully re-paint with spray enamel (silver)it wrinkles within minutes. Have tried two brands of paint with same results... Anyone have suggestions ?
