Default Paint?
Ok, so I need to paint the inside of my stand. I want to paint it white but I'm not sure what kind of paint to use. Will the Behr paint from depot be ok? I was thinking maybe the kitchen/bathroom enamel?

Thanks

Yep Kilz Premium. It's liquid gold (but it's white not to worry)

Great, thanks.... While I'm at Home Depot, can anyone tell me what sort of silicone I can use in my sump? The stuff I used in the uk isn't available here.

If it's for your stand, any type of paint will work.
