VinsonMassif Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I am picking up a tank this week and want to spray the sides and back black, as well as some poly sheets. Is any spray paint fine on tank silicone? Which paint is fine for poly sheets that will stick and not dissolve it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 I have painted poly with black water based acrylic paint and it was OK. I don't think aquarium silicone can be painted but there shouldn't be any on the outside of the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suphew Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Use an oil based paint for the glass, anything in a spray can is fine. The trick is to get the glass very clean before painting, isopropyl (tape deck head cleaner) is good for this if you get your hands on some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
