Non-toxic water proof paint?

[TheSinisterSOB]

Hello,

I'm gonna be making a FX5 spray bar system for my 125g, and I was wondering if anybody knows of a safe paint that can be submerged on PVC? I've heard Krylon Fusion is ok to use, but I wanted to know if anybody has experience using this paint?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

rough it up with some sand paper and allow 24-48hrs cure time.

I've used it in reef and fw applications and it works great.

Krlyon Fusion is safe to use. I have used it countless times and it has never been a problem for me. 1) allow it the appropriate amount of time to cure 2) avoid using it if you have plecos and things that will chew off the paint.

I have used fusion paints in reefs and freshwater tanks for three years as well as terarriums I let it dry one full week and never had an issue

A week really? Wow I guess I have been under shooting the timeline. I give it 24 hours and it gets wet.

Thanks for the feedback. I had asked the hardware store clerk and they looked at me like I was crazy

Pool paint works fine too. But they're hard to get in small quantities.
