![]() I thought because the rubbing alcohol was suggested when dealing with resiliconing (which I've had to do) that it was ok for cleaning the glass....frick....well will see what the morning brings....
Couldn't spray the back bec tank is in the house, didn't think it was a good idea. |

![]() ya, latex doesnt adhere very well to hard surfaces like glass, metal, or plastic.....krylon is designed differently to adhere to harder surfaces

![]() You can do it in the house Sheena just do it in small stages, a couple feet at a time, mask off the side and chuck some paper on the floor. Krylon or Rustolium will give you a nice smooth finish.
