What sort of paint sticks to a hard plastic?

I am trying to paint my rubik's cube, the stickers are done for. And I have tried fabric paint, and that worked alright, but it didn't stay on to well.





i know spray paint would work, but that would be expensive. not to mention i'd only use about 5% of each can. unless... do they have mini cans of spray paint??

Those little bottles of model paint would work. Find them at a hobby shop.What sort of paint sticks to a hard plastic?
the best solution is to buy the tiles from cubesmith.com.





But if you want to paint it, I wouldn't suggest it. It would be messy and any paint would come off after a few hours of cubing. Perhaps make your own vinyl stickers?
Model car paint is made for plastic. Some come in spray, they also come in little bitty bottles that you put on with a brush. You have to get paint thinner to clean up the brushes between colors.
