In my new project that I am planning, I want to try a HM filter. Some of the plastic pieces that I will be using are white, and I would like to paint them a more 'natural' color. Is there any paint that is safe to use in tanks or is there some way a painted object needs to be cured to be 'fish safe'?
I remember reading somewhere before that there is a brand that is safe, but can't remember the name.
TIA
 
So if I paint something with Krylon Fusion, it would be safe to use in a tank?
TIA
 
How do I go about curing it? Do I treat it with something else, or .... ?
TIA
 
Cool. Thanks for the help. Now let's see if Krylon Fusion is available in South Africa.
Would I be correct in saying that any of the paints the the Fusion range would be suitable?
TIA
 
If you can't find krylon fusion, like I said look for "baby safe" paint or paint used to spray paint Baby Cribs and such. Let it air dry as per spray can and then a day or two more to be safe.
