Hey guys, I've got a pair of black/green/silver Rossi Axial 120s I want to paint.

I have the blue/purple chronics and a blue and black gear set up.

What kind of paint should I use to paint the green part of my bindings either blue or purple?

dont do it. it can corrode the plastic, or get inside and cause it to not function properly, thus ruining the binding. also im not 100%, but i dont know if shops are allowed to mount bindings that have been altered in any way

plus they're fuckin bindings. does it really matter if they dont match your skis?

Anybody know about clear coating? The paint on the fks 140 sucks and the paint on the steel part on the heels on mine is half way gone after 10 days.

I like my legs

No, but seriously I wouldn't go painting my bindings. Not only would choosing the wrong paint risk corroding the binding itself. But also if paint found itself into mechanical areas of the binding then you could risk various different mechanical binding failures; such as releasing or not releasing when the time is right for the other.
