Salt Box paint

[McGaw]

Hey guys,
I just found a few salt boxes. $60 each. They measure L31 W23 H32. They are grey, and I'm just wondering what sort of paint would I need to use to paint them, and to ensure the paint won't come off in the winter elements?
Also, is $60 ea. a good deal?

Thanks alot

here are the prices i just got for some snow ex boxes i was going to use for calcium at the shopping centers i do
#550...about 500 lbs ......299.00
#1100 .......399.00
#1800 about 1750 lbs......499.00
i didn't realize from the pics that the boxes were this big (and expensive, it's just plastic) so i'm going to make my own,

Did you get them from Forest City Plastics?...we're talking about them on the Canadian Weather Thread-post a pic or two there if you have them please.

I noticed that you guys are looking at ordering some in bulk. I just noticed these on kijiji. Here's the link http://london.kijiji.ca/c-buy-and-se...AdIdZ164185427
I know that the companys I've worked for have used boxes from Forest City Plastics, and they worked great. I beleive they were custom ordered, but I'm not sure where they had the painting and decals done. They seemed pretty durable.

adam...these are plastic, correct? i originally thought they were metal and you wanted them painted..are you just wanting a custom look to the plastic? paint might not stick so well in a harsh environment.could the boxes have been "layed up" with the color in the palstic instead of painted?

Krylon fusion would work to paint them.
