Just wondering what type of paint people use for the back of their tanks????

I am resetting up my 45 G FW and am debating between a back drop with the SEE Veiw stuff. or a painted back.

just wondering if there are specific things in the paint to look for to make it bond to the glass? or make sure if some spills FW/SW happen it wont remove paint?

Thanks in Advance.

very thin even coats will give you the best resalt... oh and tape and paper off everything you dont want painted

Sign vinyl works pretty good and I speculate may be easier to remove.

HI I picked up a piece of black arborite from Revy for $5 it works great. The thing is it comes in lots of colours ,tough and if I want its easy to change the colour.
