Just keep in mind that not all Krylon paints are Fusion.

I got the wrong can once and had to return it.

Am I wrong in saying that the most (if not THE) important quality in a reef-safe paint is that it is INERT WHEN CURED? There are many paints that have this quality, most notably 2-part marine epoxy paint as well as some spray paints...

Yup. "Inert when cured" is the key.

Also, Tony, I bought a few cans of this at the paint shop on MacLeod Trail, just south of Southland Drive, sandwiched between Speedy Glass and Mr. Big & Tall (and just a few doors down from Adult Source!)....if you're still looking for it.
