I'm not sure what type of plastic the tubing was, it was a pickup tube from a large lawnmower gas tank. The paint was just some cheep Walmart spray paint. I don't know how long the paint will stay on, but I think I made these resistors six or seven years ago.
I will try to take some pictures of steps involved in making the resistors and post them. It will be a couple of weeks though, most of my radio stuff is at our other house.
