FloridaHogs 01-03-2009, 06:28 PM I use a water based laytex on my cages, but the customs don't really have a high humidity. BryonsBoas 01-03-2009, 10:17 PM There is a two part epoxy type paint at Lowe's that is supposed to be really good for high humidity rooms. The big drawback is you would need to let it sit & cure for 30 - 45 days. Sputnik 01-03-2009, 10:21 PM I use a water based laytex on my cages, but the customs don't really have a high humidity.

BryonsBoas 01-03-2009, 10:24 PM It is a long time so it would have to be planned out in advance. For human use the wait time is 5 - 7 days because we can open windows, turn on fans & vents. For cage use they recommend the long wait since it out gasses while it cures. FloridaHogs 01-03-2009, 10:25 PM Man, you would really have to plan ahead for that one! JChandler 01-03-2009, 10:26 PM I have heard marine paint works for that, never used it personally. 147BOAS 01-03-2009, 10:31 PM I have heard marine paint works for that, never used it personally. i have used it on gun stocks and it works great but i dont know about cages FloridaHogs 01-03-2009, 10:32 PM I would think marine paint would have to be pretty environmentally safe....maybe not. RichardA 01-04-2009, 09:13 AM I use simple water based exterior paint......works in the rain and sun, works on cages. However I also have a HVLP and will be doing mine in 3 part acrylic here before long. Automotive grade. apython 06-04-2009, 09:39 PM I used some stuff from home depot,I think it was called freshaire paint.
