Painting Vinyl siding?

Krylon makes Fusion paint which is for plastics, etc. I don't know if that is what you're looking for.

Can't hurt to try it. You're going to have to take it off to match it with other stuff if you don't paint it.

Any good exterior latex paint. There may be some grade better than others for that application, so check with your local paint dealer. I painted some trim with Pittsburgh brand and it has held up for many years now. I repainted it to change color about three years ago. Still good.

Most spray canned paint companies now make a plastic paint, such as Rustoleum and Valspar's 'American Tradition'.

"Fusion" is wet dog s*it compared to Duplicolor "VinylColor" for anything plastic. There may be more than one mfgr of this kind of stuff, if necc.; this is not paint, its sold for dying vehicle interiors, and it works well for plastics, like computer components (the one I use), and probably does flexible electrical cords with no problem. You can't make a mistake, there is no running, and the color is even. There is no excuse not to paint anything plastic, even black. If you're gonna, don't waste your time doing anything else.

well maybe they changed the name to "Vinyl & Fabric":

so I thought I'd save save some time
