Replying to Ski Painting?

I really want to buy a pair of last years Salomon Thrusters, sweet ski, with THE fuckin ugliest graphic ever, but for 400 with binding brand new, i think that i cant go wrong.

I was just wondering if its possible to paint a pair of skis in a way that the paint wont chip off every time ur skis touch/flex.

Ive never tried painting skis, but i would have to assume that a coat of spray paint would do just that.

Anyone thrown down a successful paint job that hasnt all chipped off? If so, could u give me a rough idea of the steps to take in order to create a long lasting paint job?
