Paint question

I am planning on painting a plastic hitch post for my SH.
I was thinking about painting it with this

http://www.krylon.com/products/fusion_for_plastic/

Drying it, and then doing like a "curing" before putting it in.
Is this safe?

Krylon Fusion once dry is completely safe to put in an aquarium.

Google surface preparation for the exact paint you are using. Surface preparation is just as important as all other steps of preservation combined.
