I think that it was terrapin who said that Fusion is very good paint for plastic.
I have a can of brown that I have almost used on a Model M case several times. Once I dye a set of keys brown, I will do the case.
My testimonial to Dupli-Color Vinyl and Fabric Coating ($8 at NAPA) is pretty solid, however.
I did 2 cases in Charcoal Gray on my Model F 122-key terminal boards a year ago and they have held up flawlessly. They remain parked on the desk 98% of the time and I am careful with them (eg clean hands and no food or drink), but they are exhibiting no wear at all.

“No political truth is of greater intrinsic value, or is stamped with the authority of more enlightened patrons of liberty: The accumulation of all powers, legislative, executive, and judiciary, in the same hands .… may justly be pronounced the very definition of tyranny.” —James Madison, Federalist 47
“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48
