Jim,
I have not painted any lexan on my plane but the bodies on most RC cars are lexan and they paint them. I do not know if the paint is anything special or not. Got any scraps to test on?

I painted my gap seal which is made out of Lexan with the same Poly-Tone
paint I used on the FireFly. Sticks real good, in fact you don't want
to change your mind later and try to remove it!!

I painted the top part of the canopy on a Dragonfly MK II with the same paint as the plane. Just tape it off and rough up the lexan with sandpaper so the paint will have better grip.

I painted with poly tone and after 5 or 6 years I am seeing some minor cracking in the lexan. The poly tone seems to melt into the plastic so no scuffing is necessary.
