[QUOTE="Gavin Allan, post: 981561, member: 60736"] People on this forum are always so helpful in a number of ways, so I thought I'd ask here: Anyone know of a paint that might work for the headrests on my hot tub? They are made from integral skin polyurethane foam, and were probably made with an in-mold paint/release process. Anyway, the paint on these pieces is faded and peeling off badly, and they look like heck. New ones are ~$60 each, and I have like six of them, so I sure would like to fix what I have. I recall there are vinyl paints for vinyl upholstery that work well for cars-- anyone have any ideas for what might work for these headrests, especially in the moist steamy environment. In addition to paint, I need to figure out a way to get the existing paint off. It peels pretty easy, but in very small pieces. It would take me hours to peel each headrest. I haven't tried any solvents, but thought someone might have an idea what solvent might work best to clean them up, but not attack the polyurethane. Thanks for any advice. Google hasn't been real helpful. [/QUOTE]
