I did a GT90 from Ertl that way when it was new. The white was so white there was no way any paint I had would be that bright. Besides, I could always paint it later if I changed my mind...
Polished it with Blue Magic. It does have a slight translucent look to it like any plastic, but in this case it was dense enough to come out as a keeper.
Usually I paint everything, the only exception is when the real part is supposed to look like plastic, (and it's molded in the right color), like on dirt bike fenders... - Mark
