I was going to paint bindings... but it seems like it'll just chip off. Don't know how to prevent that. Anybody had success with that?

I honestly I’ve never tried it, but have you guys considered using a primer to prevent the actual paint from chipping?

sand and a number of coats of primer, then desired number of layers of paint, then a type of clear coat

If you just 'throw' paint on you might have trouble. I would recomend using a primer first and then SPRAYING on the paint coat. I'll bet a laytex based paint would hold up better. I"m no expert though.
Success often walks side by side with sacrafice.

sharpie has a new kind of paint pen. they're waterproof and permanent and work really well. i did one of my surfboards in them and it's stayed on really well. theyre pens so theyre easy to control and pretty.
guy at SkiShop SC to me: "Why is there sand in your bindings?"
