What type of paint would adhere to glossy surface on plastic?

I'm trying to paint my own iphone case
It is a glossed plastic hard case
Any tips on how to paint it and make it stay on/not chip?
And what type of paint will adhere?

Lol, just buy one, it will be much better, even though you seem like a proffesional.

Sand it lightly with fine sandpaper, give it a coat of Krylon gray spray primer, then use acrylics. Finish it off with a good spray varnish.

Or paint directly on the plastic with enamel paints, and coat with varnish.

  • What's the Difference Between a Matte and Glossy Finish? I'm in the process of making an iPhone case, and it's asking if I want a matte finish or a glossy finish. What's the difference? Which one would make for a better case? The matte finish is more expensive, so does that mean it's more durable and a better case for my phone?
  • Painting Plastic with Acrylic Paint? I have a clear hard plastic iphone case and I wanted to paint my own design on it. I know that acrylic paint doesn't really stick to plasitc and that it kinda peels off but would the paint stick better if I spray painted the plastic first then painted over with acrylic? And is there something that I could spray on when it dries to prevent the paint from scratching off?
