Hey,

Usually paint for polycarbonate is to hot for polystyrene. But maybe if you treat it like real automotive paint it'll work. Another thing is that this type of paint mostly dries dead flat so you need to clear coat it, on a radio controlled car you paint a clear body shell on the inside and sort of getting the clear coat by it self.

Polycarbonate is made for polycarbonate, it doesnt stick to polystyrene.
