Calcium deposits actually etch the surface off glass.If you used acids on it then you probably have it as clean as its going to get.
As well as silicon sticks to smooth glass it would probably grip like crazy to an etched surface.There's microscopic holes for it to get into.Just clean the seem...
If you paint glass you can scrape oil or water base paint off a 125g in about 5min with a good 4" wide razor blade.The stuff comes off in sheets.
Most any color of paint you go with will look like a flat texture looking through the front of the tank.Rather you use flat or gloss.
After trying...
How much baking soda did you add?Sounds like average salt tank build up.I'd stick with a normal cleaning routine of 50% water changes and a razor blade.
If you tear the tank down and remove animals everytime you have some mineral deposits your gonna be goin NUTS!
Hi all,I'm wondering which would be best for painting the background on an acrylic tank.Acrylic latex water base,or enamel oil base?Will either one hurt or melt the acrylic.Or is all this just much adoo about nothing?
