Can you use paint to paint plastic?

Do a search for "plastic paint" and you will find several manufacturers of products that should allow you to recolor your sunglass frames. One of the more popular brand is Krylon Fusion, but many paint manufacturer have their own variation. There is not a huge choice of colors, but all the primaries and a few shades are covered so you should be able to find a color that suits your needs. FYI, "plastic paint" is not quite like traditional painting. It is actually more accurately called "plastic dye" because you are actually deposition pigment into the surface of the plastic. Think of it as a special form of colored paint mixed in with a solvent that slightly melts the surface of the plastic, allowing the special paint pigment to molecularly bond with the surface. This is why "plastic paint" does not chip like traditional paint.

How can you make a plastic look like real leather?

I have seen plastic where an artist took a real piece of leather and heated the surface of the plastic, then pressed the leather into the hot surface. The look of the leather melted into the plastic, and he peeled the leather off, to reuse for another piece. Then it is painted the color of the leather. Another was is to use a painting technique of touching wet paint with a rag to make it look like leather. This method is explained in a book you can pick up at the paint store called faux paint finishes.

What type of paint is best used for painting on plastic tupperware containers?

I don't know how envolved you want to get but, your problem is the plastic will flex and the paint will chip and peel, you need two (2) things, a bonding agent (to make the paint stick to the plastic) and a flex agent (to make the paint stretch). you can get these at a automotive paint store. Its a little envolved but I have never had a problem with peeling or chipping paint on plastic. NOTE: Car bumpers are painted this way. OOP'S, Enamel paint is just fine

Can you paint or clean refrigerator handles that have yellowed?

If the handles are plastic, Krylon makes an excellent line of spray paint products that bonds to plastic and adheres to the surface. Most spray paint products only coat the plastic and on a surface like a handle that will be used constantly, is easily scratched or peeled. The Krylon plastic paint bonds to the plastic surface and is very durable. The one down side is if you paint the handles and don't like the results, there is no going backwards, you can't remove the paint once it has cured.
