White was ugly... plus seeing the writing on the side of the PVC was just plain cheap looking and tacky. I want it to look nice.

F**ck'n A man... I painted it bogwood brown... he11 its even brown in the pic I took.
 
Sheesh, calm down dude. But I'd give it a couple of days to cure and depending on how many coats you put on it. But me personally, I think brown is gonna stick out like a sore thumb............

Nah, its dark brown, just like my driftwood. Thats the exact shade I wanted... as I plan to have driftwood/bogwood attached to it.

The can says 7 days to chip resistant. I don't think I'll wait that long. I'll let ya guys know if it turns out that I should have :D
 
How'd this work out for you? I like to wait at least 24 hours before i put it in the tank. I have no patience some where between 24-72 hours should be ok. Let's see some pics in the tank.
