Changing color of a powder coated finish

I want to change the color of a clear powder coated pickup truck tool box. Do I need to refinish with another pewder coated finish or could I successfully use a spray finish?

Dear Robert,

It shouldn't be a problem to put a liquid paint over a powder coat.

Have fun,

When you put paint direct on top it don't hold for long there is a better solution....Put first a underground for plastic and then the spray you like on top of this layer.

Friendly Greetings......
