Winter Makeover - Best Paint to use???

Well the bikes now been taken off the road for the winter and I'm planning on giving the fairing/tail unit a bit of a spruce up (New Paint/Stickers). I'm already using the Image Works to do the vinyl but can anyone recommend a paint to use??

I've found a company called Krylon who are based in the U.S. who do a plastic satin finish paint which looks to be quite durable but they can't supply to the UK.. Not sure whether Halfords 'Satin' finish Black will be okay, has anyone used it?

Any feedback would be appreciated (can't afford for someone to do it so will have to do it myself)
 
I've used Bike Colours on a few occasions - there stuff is really good quaility and the colour match is pretty spot on too.

Thanks guys, have ordered a couple of cans today if ok I'll be doing the rest of the bike.

Thinking of doing a Chesterfield rep, anyone done one on a RSV?
 
Chesterfiel rep sounds good !

I've just kept mine as standard, 01 MY Electric Blue and replaced all the decals with new ones from Image works - good chaps and the printed vinyl is good quality.

+1 for bike colous. They also sell paint for spray gun / airbrush by the 1/4 or 1/2 litre if you ask.
