If the plastic is what I think it is, Goop which has been mentioned
works
well, and I have been told that Hot Stuff Super "T" CA glue will work.
Apparently the plastic is a form of nylon, and regular CA glue won't
work.
As for paint, our local hobbyist suggested Ral Partha paint. When I
looked
at him skeptically, he pulled out some BattleTech figs made from this
plastic
that he had painted. I was surprised, it didn't flake off. But this
paint
will cost you (of course).
