Default Can you Line-X plastic?

Does anybody know if you can Line-X plastic? I have a new silver unlimited and I want to color match Line-X to my grill and was thinking of doing the wheel wells and underneath the fenders also but didn't know if that stuff sticks to plastic. Has anybody else done this and how has it stood up?thanks

Yes but you have to sand it rough first or eventually it will flake off...

Yes u can. I did my grill in line-x xtra to color match it as well. Also in silver. Came out great. I just dropped it off to them and they took care of the rest. U can pretty much line-x anything with the right prep. There are pictures of my grill in my pictures. Take a look

It can be done. Talk to your Line-X dealer, or go to the Line-X website.
My Line-X dealer even had it covering his wooden entry steps.

If you want a DIY...

Clean the sh_t out of it and use Duplicolor adhesion promoter
and then spray on bedliner.

I checked out the local Line-X dealer a couple months back to get a qoute for my Jeep ($750). The guy told me he could Line-X anything. Then he showed me his work bay. Yep everything. He even had a football Line-Xed.
