i also wash and reuse some to plant seedlings and divisions to give away.

Krylon makes a paint in a can called "Fusion". It comes in several colors and is for plastic. I have used the clear as a basecoat on plastic and then used another color over it. I have used the colored ones as well. I haven't tried it on black pots, but it worked great on my RV door.
