Painting Pure Polyethylene
« on: January 01, 2009, 04:39:43 PM »
I don't know if this is something the intellect of the chemical community here can help me with or not. I thought I'd ask anyhow, Basically as the subject implies A college of mine wants to attempt painting a pure polyethylene substrate and most resources suggest this cannot be done. If anyone has some insight that can help I'd greatly appreciate it.

I have had household paint stick and bind to plastic grocery bags. They are polyethylene.
