Hi,

When spraying plastic once you have smoothened it, is it necessary to primer the plastic or is it fine to go ahead spraying? If you have to primer what would happen if you didnt primer it?

Thanks

try and find some proper plastic primer.
if you dont use any then the paint will probably look shit then flake off
