What paint do I use for the plastic gas & electric meter cupboards?

Says it all really, they are currently a hideous shade of blue and now that the weather is getting much better I want to paint them black.

Can I just use exterior gloss paint for the cupboard and the plastic pipe below?

This also goes for washing machine drainage pipes too that come through the wall into the grid.

Latex exterior house paint is good for covering plastic. If it was me though I would buy a tester pot and paint a plastic plant pot first. Rub it down, paint it and see if you like it.

Thanks triflenorks, will check out latex exterior paint. Will be off to the money pit known as B&Q tomorrow!
