Hi, Yours looked great! I am about to use the exact same method to make my first pair. Did you follow the instructions exactly or did you modify them? Also I was curious, how did you get clear lenses in the ends the goggles? i didn't see anything about them in the instructions. was yours sticky afterwords?

How well does the paint adhere to the rubberised plastic?

The short answer is not well out of the box. If I could spray paint over I'd follow someone else' advice and wash the rubbery frame with soap and water, lightly sand it with some 400 or 600 sand paper, then wash it again and do a light coat of flat primer, let it dry for like 48 hours, then do the flat green paint recommended in the above article and I think it would stick way better. It may still peel with sanding, washing, and the primer, but spraying the rubbery material with just the flat green camo . . it very easily peels away with any hard edge or fingernail touching it. I went with a real weathered version so the peeling fits, but it's a frustration for sure.
