Title: glass paint/spray to replicate a blue mx1000???
Post by: bigfatolly on June 28, 2011, 10:44 PM: I have a silver/stripped mx1000 coming that needs to be blue to replicate the blue anno from bitd.

I think i have seen threads on here using glass paint?

Can anyone tell me the best thing to use and where to get it?

Thanks in advance!! :daumenhoch: :Great_Britain:
