thanks, everyone agree? this is not going to burn a hole into the bottom of my tank is it? just cautious since acrylic seems to be very sensitive.

Bump... just want to make sure, is Krylon Fusion paint okay on acrylic tanks?

[midasman714]

nope, everything went on pretty smooth. just make sure you clean the surface and tape off.

noob question so are you painting the inside or the outside

 

[jdmkid]
