Can I just go into the paint store and have them mix paint in a shade of blue I like (as long as it’s latex)? Or is that a no-go

I used flat black spray paint on the back and bottom of mine as well as the bottom back and sides of my sump and QT tank with no problems at all. If the rustoleum is the exact color you want, why not try that? Just be sure to use several very very thin coats and take your time.

I wanna roll it on. It’s way to cold to spray outside. HD and Lowe’s doesn’t carry all the colors of that brand where I am.

That one does not seem to be specified for glass, so unsure if it will eventually start peeling off.
I was told acrylic/latex is what to use. Maybe I’ll go to an actual paint store.
