Can the white post/mailbox be painted a clay color, since clay is no longer manufactured ? What paint is recommended?

Unfortunately, We do not recommend painting your mail post. Our products are manufactured from polyethylene, which is an oil based plastic. We have found that paint typically does not adhere to it very well; it tends to peel and flake off over time. There is a paint on the market that is called “Fusion for Plastic” made by Krylon, which some of our customers have used with success. If you do choose to paint your item, we recommend testing on a small unvisible portion before painting the entire product. Please be advised that painted products cannot be returned and that painting the product will also void the warranty.
