How well will this work to paint PVC piping. Also, will i need to use sand paper on the PVC before painting?

I have used it on PVC piping. I applied it this spring, and it still looks newly painted. As per instructions, I did **not** sand prior to application. So far, I am a happy customer. If I have seen any downside, it does not clean off readily with paint thinner.

I use the Epson Stylus R280 with my PVC cards, and I have been thoroughly satisfied with the results. The only thing you will have to figure out is how to set the dimensions of your image to print properly when using the tray. After a few failures I came up with a good template. You'll figure out how to work within the limitations.

I used 10' x 2'' PVC tubs from Lowes. Works like a dream. Used 1/2'' self-tapping screws to attach canvas backgrounds to tub. I also used 1/2'' tubs on the leading edge of the canvas to make them keep their shape since they tend to try and roll to one side or the other.

I am not sure about sanding. It may not work. You may be able to paint right over the finish as it is not a smooth finish.

I would use it on metal only. It would melt PVC very quickly. If you were very very careful and didn't place the flame very close it might work but again too risky in my mind.

No,it won't work on sand dollars since this product is made for plating thin gold on metals. I would recommend you to use a gold paint comes in liquid form( you can find at any craft stores or hardware stores,of course,you can find it on amazon,too) for your project instead of this item. Good luck

Yes, I have used it both in the grey PVC runs, directly under soil, and outdoors with direct sun exposure. No issues so far. There are gel filled cables to avoid water intrusion, but I haven't found it necessary unless you are running it in an area that stays very wet.

Treat this stuff just like POR-15 paint. Clean the surface, and use prep and ready. On bare metal or paint, I would scuff the surface 100 grit sandpaper too.

what ever you dont want to show peeling so on wire brush sand paper so on by no means do you have to get rld of all the rust this paint stops the rust and encapulates it remember they suggest to top coat this paint after proper drying you may use a color on top if you wish i suggest regular rust olium

It will not hurt PVC pipes. I would wrap the pipe with aluminum foil first to help spread out the heat

I haven't tried it yet, but I don't see why it wouldn't work. Although the instructions say no need for priming... I still would probably use a fine grain sandpaper on the vinyl first, then spray in thin layers spraying each layer within 12 hours of each other. After 7 days it should be nice solid for you. I wouldn't try it on something as flexible as sheet vinyl.

We think you can if you take some sandpaper to scratch them up a little so that the paint sticks to the PVC pipe!

Even though it's made of PVC, I don't think paint would hold up on it. There were some beige options available when I ordered mine, though.

I have used this paint on PVC pipes which are exposed to Florida weather extremes. I would have no hesitation using it on vinyl shutters. Note that the paint becomes more durable and scratch-resistant with time.

I used it to print a shirt with a stencil and a sponge and it bled thru. I've had trouble getting it a uniform color without using a screen. Hope this helped

I am not sure it would work to pre-paint it. when my husband installed this paper, he filled the bathtub with water and dunked in the paper. mthen he folded it, let it drain a little and carried it to the wall he was palcing it on. I believe if you pre-painted it, your paint would run during that process.

If you use a good primer before you paint, it should be okay. I recommend Stix primer by Benjamin Moore. I work in a hardware store that sells paint, and this is a good product for your project.
