If you are painting lettering directly to the plastic, there are single part epoxies that are available, some suitable for outdoor use, that would adhere to plastic without having to use a primer. If you are going to paint the background a solid color, you can use a special primer, formulated to adhere to plastic, then paint it with an acrylic paint which can then be coated with the same type of acrylic paint for any lettering and design.
