imadigger - I saw the same post on plastic spray paint! I had originally bought the spraypaint to cover up the kitty litter containers I was using as planters outside . . . (they no longer look like kitty litter containers - or at least, they look like nicer ones!). Just to see, I also painted 3 2-1/4" pots and 3 1-oz solo cups of each color (white, green & terra cotta gets old). They didn't turn out bad at all! Now, once I see the blooms on some AV's, I have options of pot color . . .

I do need to tell you, though . . . if you get the pounded copper color, you'll either need to do more than one coat, or put a coat of something underneath, so the effects will show faster - I had tried to put thicker layers, but it just started running, and normal coats just weren't enough.
