As I have some clear perspex sheet that I can use to replicate the effect of glass and velvet I decided to paint the glass yesterday evening.
Foxy's and my glass were painted with Halfords matt black spray paint. No probs.
WARNING:
For this sheet I used locally sourced ' CarPlan ' matt spray paint. Despite wearing a mask the fumes from the ' CarPlan ' paint were something else.
Far worse than from Halfords paint despite both being cellulose.
Something I did not think about at the time was that the fumes from the paint got into my clothing. After the last coat I came in from the workshop and logged onto WPF. After a few minutes on the forum, Lucky our stray budgie fell of his perch and was in a bit of a disoriented state. The reason quickly clicked as he had had a similar reaction to white spirit. So I quickly changed clothes and ventilated the room.
Lucky is fine and as I type this and is sitting on my hand chatting away.
