Non-toxic paint...

bakeaway Sep 07, 2012 08:09 AM

I got these great plastic containers at work that will be great hides. But they are clear. So I want to paint them black.
What paint should I use? Or any other way....
Thanks

I used AFM Safecoat stain before.
The trick for any coating materials around snakes is to let it dry and air out well before placing the animal in it or near it.
