You will have to prep all plastic panels extremely well when using any paint on it. All glossy areas will have to be scuffed down lightly, wipe down with a quality was and grease remover and then use an adhesion promoter prior to any paint. This will ensure maximum adhesion. I would try a test panel if at all possible. You can tape and two tone Paint Shop. Just make sure you use the low tack tape. I hope this helps.
