Black Paint

Hi guys

Just a quick question, what is a good paint to use as a background? I want to paint the back

Thanks
Spencer

 

Kinda wanna paint the back today, any1??? think im just gonna get normal enamol?

 

get a matt black spray paint and spray the back, i did it to my 4ft last week and it looks good, even if I say so myself.

 

Perfect thanks Barry i will get that!! +1 for the help oh and any particular brand?

 

you can also use the enamel black paint. but spraypaint would be easier.

 

pleasure, glad I could help!
PLOFIT aerosol paint, but I am sure any make would work.

 

Hi @wrenchy, I used Engine black on my tank. Looks great and will definitely not crack. Can withstand heat etc. HTH

 

I usually use normal roof paint, takes about 5 or 6 layers with one of those small sponge rollers and it can be removed should you wish to do so

 

@Slo,o.00 just used the spray paint haha didnt even think about the heat thing i hope it still works :O

 

Used charcoal grey roof paint on mine, looks good. The roof paint is water based and more enviromentally friendly than the aerosol or enamel. Takes 3 or 4 coats to cover nicely though.

 

Get a roll of black vinyl from Builders or any signage place. No mess, no fuss.

 

I also used black vinyl, definately the way to go!

 

I used enamel on mine. 4 thin coats with a sponge roller and it looks good, even if I must say so myself..:wink:

 

Duram Black is what i used - no problems at all so far
