I have new bilateral AFOs and I definitely need to decorate them.

I know someone on here painted the plastic part of the AFO, like tigger if I remember right.

What kind of paint did you use? How well did the paint hold up?

Anyone who has painted plastic or decorated AFOs (or KAFOs - I have one each) I would love to hear tips!
 
I knew someone who got their's painted at a custom car refinisher.

I've also seen paint that is meant to bond to plastic. This one is readily available:

You could also try a hobby or art supply shop. The staff there are usually pretty knowledgable about what they sell and how it works on different surfaces.

If you have something more detailed in mind than you can paint, if you have an art school nearby, they may have a jobs registry where people can advertise for a small job like this for a student to do.
