Good morning ECF =D
I've found myself with an ePower that my husband didn't care for, and want to make it baby blue (very, very badly). Has anyone ever spray painted a battery tube and cone before? I am thinking I should buy something like Rustoleum, but maybe there is some type better for this use? Should I sand the finish first so the paint will stick better (will this cause it to get rusty?), or use a spray primer of some sort? Also, I spray painted something once, and it had little bubbles that dried in the paint...how do I prevent this? Also, do I need some kind of finishing spray on top of it all to prevent chipping or other paint wear? Only thing I really know is to blue tape the threads really carefully.
Any advice on spray painting metal things (mods or otherwise) would be appreciated so much =D
