Painting on plastic

Painting our new clear polyurethane blimp has been among the many things we've been working on in the past few weeks. We tested Krylon engine enamel and Krylon fusion spraypaint on plastic, and neither seemed to work particularly well. We ended up using fabric paint for the first blimp -- and you can see us applying it in the video below. Beyond this, there has been much progress on all other aspects, but we will save those details for forthcoming entries.
