    I'm sure you can.. Question is how well will it hang on...

    I would think if you can find the right primer it would be ok.

    I'm sure I've seen a suitable primer around. Try the big green shed, but you may need a specialist paint shop.

    You could try superglue mixed with powdered something, charcoal or talcum powder, and using one with a separate primer for best adhesion. Lots of U-Tube videos on it

    The worst which could happen is that you'll never mistake yours on the airport carousel

    In the auto trade there are particular primers for plastic bumpers from specialist paint suppliers

    Of course there are the same options available via the regular auto shops

    Then there is the handyman version

    With any painting the best results are using one manufacturers paint system so as well as the primer give thought to the top coat you intend to use.
