I know I said I was done for a while....

So I kept this one simple.

I wanted a shorter cage for the sand worms, but the color was all wrong!

The cages has a fake wood finish. It was just plastic, so I figured I'd try out that plastic paint in a can. Hopefully my work goes well.

Hope this helps out anyone looking to paint a cage!

I'll post up the finished product when it's done.

The stuff I'm trying out for the first paint job.

Lol, I did exactly the same with my 30 gallon aquarium- I don't like the faux wood look and there was a burned spot on the top, so I spray-painted the trim black with the paint meant for plastic. You can't see the burned spot anymore and it looks waaaay better! Yours will look great, I'm sure :banana:

Now that it's had time to air out and dry, here it is.
