someone can tell me what brands do polycarbonate paint in cap bottles? not sprays

here in Europe most shops have only spray paint , both tamiya and pactra brands

20 years ago we can bougth the kyosho polyca in small bottles for brush painting, but now nothing available here.

I usually painted with airbrush in those years. but now as no paint available, airbrush is parked.

Just wondered if anyone has tried the Krylon Fusion paints? (I think that is what it is called) It is supposed to bond with plastics.

I've used it, but bonding with plastics and bonding with Lexan are two totally different things. You probably won't get a good bond to plexiglass with Krylon Fusion.
