I need to paint my overflows in my new tank. Is there a special paint I should or should NOT use? I got some primer that works on glass and I was thinking about just spraying it after that.

Krylon Fusion spraypaint. 3 bucks at Walmart and no primer needed.

Nope. Just follow the directions on the can. Lots of people use it including me; I even used it for the overflow that goes into the tank. It also scrapes off fairly easy if you overspray or decide you want a change of color or something.

Im assuming your overflow is plastic or glass........if then, I really recommend the Krylon Fusion for Plastics. I just painted the back of my 75 with this stuff and it is bullet proof. I have to try pretty hard to scratch it off and it is wickedly smooth!

Would this stuff work on fiberglass?
