Ha, that was easy, I just scraped the paint off it 10mins. Will spray it instead.

I used Krylon spray paint, works great

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.

I've done that before, you're right, it's not a good idea.

Well I will give it a try today, will cover everything and just take it slow! One problem I see is my jealous dog wanting to be in the thick of it

Bunch of errands and rv show today so will happen later.

Spray painting in the house is NOT a good idea....but it's done and must say I did a pretty good job! Realized today that there is black dust on every surface in the house. Good thing I'm playing hooky today, get it cleaned up before anyone notices!

About 10 years ago I sprayed the back of a 45 black in a small room of my apartment with the door shut and window open in winter. Crazy not-smart to put it politely... I wanted to contain the fallout to one room. Sounds like you at least spread the nasty around a lot more square footage which is a plus lol.
