I painted my seatbelts (made from medical tape) with acrylic paint and it worked great.

Yes. Paint it green and then spray an overcoat of flat when you can get to the hobby store.

While overcoating with flat is the best way in my opinion, you can also mix the flat in the paint for a softer flat, more satin look. Or mix talcum powder in to the paint to flatten it... - Mark
