Has anyone spray painted the interior plastic bathroom units in their motorhome?

We have had to remove the plastic units and as they are out and discoloured as they do from white to beige I wondered how successful it might be to spray them before they go back in once the underfloor is replaced?
At the moment we have an Al Fresco loo 🤪
 
We had our sink done when we got the shower tray speedcoat done.
think they just used a two pak white paint. You cannot tell it was painted.
we re inforced the underside as the sinks are thin.

Very happy with the results and an easy job.

It’s a two part product, when mixed is thin like milk (I used 1/2 in case I needed a second coat) poured a little on and used a brush to even the paint out.

It only needed 1 coat and was dry the next day.
Apparently you can use a roller too.

Any questions, ask away. Yellow line is frog tape.

Painting plastic these days is common practice as car bumpers, wings and even some bonnets are plastic, we always use a plasticiser which is a clear spray on coat like a glue so that the primer sticks to it, but many of the modern two pack products like newbath may contain it ? Myself i would use plasticiser first which you can get from any good car paint supplier in a spray can just to be sure. Hope this helps.

Agree with the above comments , we went to a local paint shop and got plastic paint in colour match spray cans for our Silver Adria , so I could spray the white plastic air con external unit to match the van . No issues with it coming off , wiped down with specific cleaning agent they gave us, then primed and painted top coat.
