I have light mounts with aluminum bases that are close to the water and figure its probably a good idea to coat them with some sort of plastic or paint are there any recommendations ive seen things about krylon fusion is this a good option or should i use something else just want to be safe about it if anyone has had any experience with the same thing
 
krylon fusion seems to be reef safe, and it wouldn't even go into the water so i think you'll be fine, i painted the hood of my old red sea tank with krylon and no issues so far
krylon fusion has been reported to be reef safe by many as long as you give it plenty of time to off gas and cure properly. No paint and dunk 24hrs later. I have used it myself.

Yeah its not submerged but fairly close to the water so it will most likely end up getting splashed a bit I just feel like just having the metal cant be a good idea lol
