Rustoleum works fine.
Just spray prime them white, and then spray on the color.

I just finished a bunch last week and they work just fine.

Wayne,
Also, a lot of us, spray only the tip with day glow orange paint for about 4-5 inches of tip. Then , just leave the rest of the blank alone. If you want color, do it with your thread wraps.

I use bumper paint from an auto paint supply store. It comes many colors and is made to Flex.

A lot of guys use Krylon for plastics with good results.
