Difference between ENAMEL and POLYURETHANE
Polyurethanes do not need to be high gloss, smooth and/or decorative; therefore, they are usually only referred to as top coats, although painters might use the word "enamel" to describe them [links]
Q: What is the difference between ENAMEL and POLYURETHANE? I would like to have a scientific explanation if possible. more

Some of the clear coats used over enamel include Rustoleum and Spray Max 2k. Clear coat can be applied over most Rustoleum enamel paint. For instance, acrylic clear coat over acrylic paint, enamel clear coat over enamel, lacquers over lacquers, and so on.
Enamel can last longer and it’s more resistant to cracks and does not fade, unlike acrylic paint. Enamel is not the best choice for outdoors because it’s less flexible than the acrylic and becomes harder which can lead to cracking. If you want to paint something outdoors it’s best if you use acrylic paint. more
Use paints that are specifically formulated to adhere to plastics. There are several available on the market such as Krylon Fusion for Plastic® , Valspar® Plastic Spray Paint , and Rust-Oleum Specialty Paint For Plastic Spray . If using regular spray paint then your item will need to be primed. here
Just as with the primer, you may not need a topcoat when using enamel paint.
However, depending on the type of surface and temperature of the room or area, it may be advisable to apply both a primer and a topcoat.
Nevertheless, the most important thing to consider when faced with the question of combining enamel paint with a primer or topcoat is the nature and location of the surface to be painted. [links]

I have an earlier one here where I tested 3 more products including my regular poly brush on varnish. It stuck on all of them 🙁
