In addition to the answer below, it is important to know if the moldings are interior or exterior. If they are interior, most of them can be removed (carefully) so they're easier to work on and any paint that drools onto other side can be removed. Exterior moldings are usually stationary and should be done by a professional who has the equipment to reach 2nd floors, knows what paints, stains, glazes,etc. to use, and is then responsible for anything that may go wrong,i.e. adhesion, color, technique. You may want to contact the manufacturer of the moldings to find out what they recommend. They're usually good about that. Scuff lightly with a high grit sand paper (800-1200 grit) clean with warm soapy water, plastic is petroluem based so a good dish soap will wash away the oils inherent on the molding. A good latex exterior grade paint will work fine. paint using your technique an let dry per specifications of paint you chose

How to paint using a Power painter on crown molding?
First, when painting crown molding, you will need to find an out of the way place for painting in. This place must fit the following criteria... * have sufficient square footage to accommodate all of the crown molding laid out flat and allow room for you to safely reach every inch of every stick. (painting crown molding is difficult if you can't reach it) * is totally dry. Do Not let your painted crown molding sit outside over night where it is vulnerable to dew or fog. * is safe from air born dust, dirt, leaves etc. Cover the entire floor space with painters plastic and lay out the crown molding in rows. For easy painting of your crown molding, it's best to group the rows in three to five sticks depending on your arm length. Also it is much easier to paint if they are raised up off the ground. I use buckets and 2x4s to do this. If you crown molding is white already then it is primered, you can skip that step. If not you will need to apply a coat of primer to seal the molding. No need to go very thick with it, one coat will do. Once dry, sand the primer coat lightly.Applying Paint:Generously apply the paint to two sticks at a time. Keep the spray nozzle consistently at the same distance from the crown molding (read the instructions on the box for the exact space)Repeat the process for all the sticks and apply a second coat once dry.
