|  Safe paints for metal stand? Besides powder coating, what other stuff could I use to cover/protect/paint on a metal stand for a fish tank? Por15? What other paints could I use that would prevent corrosion but won't kill my fish?

|   I use a Marine Enamel on all the stands I build, it is used in the oil field in heavy corrosive applications so it will with stand SW.

|   I get it at Cloverdale Paint here in Red Deer, most places that carry industrial paint will have it.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

|   71029 red oxide primer from cloverdale pain is the best thing to paint the bare steel with and then use a compatable top coat, doesnt matter what you use on top, with the 71029 primer i can paint a piece of steel, leave it out in my backyard for years without a top coat and it wont rust at all best primer out there imo i go through 5gallons of it every couple weeks pricey but worth it |
