Painting back of tank
 

Just some advice that might help others. Don't do this in your kitchen.....

ok... spill it.
What did you ruin... :razz:

Spray paint, by any chance?

Been there, done that a few years back. :(

oh ya....

Wipe everything down with a thinner.......might take the overspray and air floated particles off.

Ya, spent my lunch doing that :(

Mmmmmm! Eau de Paint Thinner! That'll go well with the pot roast in the oven. :biggrin:

i used acrylic paint with roll-on and it didn't work very well - too soft and easly scratched and peeled.
The best results I've ever had was rustoleum spray paint but that involved taking your tank outside. I have never tried painting on rustoleum but I imagine it would work just as well as the spray. Just don't use acrylic is my recommendation.

The rustoleum went on really well, I hope I don't need a second coat, I'm already on the s*** list at home :)

I have a tank that was sprayed four or so years ago....no issues yet. :)
