  • Painting Hoses, Intakes & Spraybar

    I sanded all my hoses, intakes and spraybar. Then I painted them with Krylon Fusion black flat paint. I did not realize that I did not purchase the paint for plastic. Will the intakes, hoses and spraybar be ok once they come in contact with water or do I need to just repaint them with Krylon for plastic.

        I've read on a few other forums that both are safe for the aquarium.

          i thought fusion is for plastics as well, maybe you can find a part or model number and compare both cans...maybe the plastic reference is new?

            I have a can specifically for plastics. I've read that they make one that can still be used for plastics, is aquarium safe, but not specifically for plastics.

              What does it say on the can? It should list the materials to which it will bond. See if plastic is listed. If so, then you should be fine.
