What types of paint are good to use on plastic cases /

few computers (plus the front bezels of my Pentium) I'd like to paint, but
am afraid of the paint not sticking to the plastic and having it look like
crap in a few months...
I've had my best results with hobbyist (RC car or aeroplane type) spray
enamel.
Barring that, that awful krylon stuff seems to work all right. One
important thing to do is to buff the surface with steel wool, to give the
paint something to stick to, and then clean it with isopropyl alcohol to
remove grease and fingerprints and dust.
My grasp on the english language is slipping.. maybe I should go home and
take a nap.
