Setting up a new tank for a friend. Wanting to paint the back black. Is there a paint I can use or just stick with the self adhesive backs???

Thanks

I like the tinted look.

Plus it's quick to do. You don't have to wait for the paint to dry or worry about an uneven coat and lines.

Any quality spray paint will work well...just tape off the top of the tank and the sides you don't want painted.

My favorite is vinyl wrap used for cars. I like it much better than paint. Like limo tint, it's quick to install and has a clean removal. AC carries some I believe.
