Out of curiosity has anyone had problems with the krylon fusion paint not sticking to the plastic? We are trying to paint the wall panels next to the passenger and drivers seats. Maybe we are not cleaning with the proper cleansers. Any ideas or suggestions?

I'd agree. I've used Fusion on various panels, and it does scratch/chip off with more ease than I'd like to see. It seems to be working fine for the ceiling panels, but perhaps the SEM product may be better for the side panels or dash.
Time will tell...............

Two years ago, I bought SEM paint to match my Odyssey seats and painted the dash and side panels. It's held up good so far.

It's interesting reading comments about krylon fusion, i know many people use it, it seemed to easy to get off, and i am not going to spray the whole driver section only to find its going to wear off easily.... all comments are appreciated. Regarding cleaning before painting, do you recommend the use of TSP to get rid of any grease and stuff beforehand ??, can this cause any reaction with SEM paint???.
Regards

Contrary to what other posters have noted, I have had truly excellent results with Krylon Fusion on every surface I have tried it on. The headliners in my GMC came out very well, along with the window trim. The ugly green plastic sliding panel under the bathroom sink turned out great. The AC interior cover, which was yellow, became like new white.
I have since been using it in my Airstream and Argosy restoration projects, and it even worked well on the yellowed tambor door materials in those rigs, as well as the interior end caps, refrigerator vents and so on.
I am just wondering if the cleaning products you have used somehow have made the surface so it would not take the Fusion paint. This is only speculation. The only cleaning I have done is with windex type cleaner, then thorough drying prior to the paint.
The dash on my GMC had been re painted with the SEM product by a PO, prior to my purchase, so I cannot say I have used Fusion on that.

I used Fusion on my front headliner cap (white) and and front side panels (brown) years ago. I have never had a problem. I am getting ready to drop the rear headliner cap one and do the same to it.
