There is an old company named "rodgers" (I believe) - they made a plastic fingergroove grip that is very comfortable.
They show up frequently for sale on the internet and shows and are usually pretty cheap.
I'm sure the surface can be roughed up and then a good Krylon paint used.

There's a guy on ebay selling relatively inexpensive plastic grips he's made for the Colt Python. Do a search for python. Maybe he can fix you up with a set of Smith grips.

Keeping in mind that paint has trouble adhering to many types of modern plastics, and even when it does the paint won't be very durable due to wear, here's some plastic S&W grips.
Some are laminated wood, but this is wood injected with a polymer and it's very dense and more like plastic than wood:

Galati International: Rogers Combat Grips for Colt Python

I know this is an old thread but the grips are still out there. About $30 shipped.

If I'm not mistaken Duplicolor makes a paint specificly for plastic. I believe it has a special solvent that will actually etch the surface of the plastic making the paint adhere better.

Krylon also makes paint specifically for plastic. It works great. It fuses with the plastic and it won't chip off.

vintagegungrips.com makes a plastic molded set of the round butt magnas for the K-frame, as well as j-frame grips. I don't know if they currently make a square butt magna, but they are always adding new stuff to their catalog.

I used a set of their grips on a Ruger Service Six and I love them. They come in pretty much any color you would want.
