I paint my class 200 pvc with Fusion, that's the Krylon paint for plastic that you were discussing. I paint them with two coats as said before. I also 'spruce' them up with fish decals that you can find in hobby stores, etc. I also use a light coat of clear spray which gives it a bit of a sheen and protects the paint and decals. I also make labels with my name, address and type of rod.
