Painting my Canopy

[Cazoom]

any paint now adays.. once its dried is inert....
use any urethane you want...
i use epoxy paint as its more water proof...

I used a cool Rustoleum paint that gives a dented metal texture that looks good on my freshwater fixture. If you're concerned about heat, though, you could pick up that high heat paints (for BBQs etc).

I agree with Cazoom, though - once it's cured it's pretty much reef safe. I have tons and tons of chrome-coloured Krylon fall into my 65 before I threw away that abomination of a canopy - never had anything upset or dead in that tank once.
