    Default painted back

    The back of my tank is painted black. Some places need touch so I got some black spray paint. Well u see what happened was, when I sprayed the areas that needed touch the old paint started to bubble n Peel. So now I have to scrap all old paint off and paint again. So my question is what paint do I use. The cheap paint was covering very lightly.

    Kyron fusion. Don't buy anything else. Very easy to use, and sprays on thick.

    Krylon fusion!!!! very inexpensive paint and works great, make sure that before you spray the tank you use tape to cover what you dont want to get painted, and also very important, clean the back of the tank usually they have a solution at wal mart, it removes all the oil thats in the back of the tank, if theres oil when you paint it when it dries its going to bubble up and peel, the oil comes from your hands or whoever touches the tank our body oils smudge it, and when you clean it with a towel your not really removing it your just spreading it all over the tank, its a pre paint solution wich shouldnt be expensive at all but, well worth using.
