: Primer on Plastic (Grille)

I've read searched responses, which has created some confusion.

Going to repaint Plastic Grille area ('69 SS):

What type of primer should I use on the plastic once I've got it sanded and cleaned?

Some say "anything", some say "etching primer", some say "plastic primer (?)".

What's the latest suggestion?

Thanks for the help,

Etch primer is meant to be used over only metal, not plastic or fiberlgass period. I would go with a plastic primer with you can get ahold of some, but if not expoy would be my second choice...Eric
