lampyben Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 While checking all of my lights, I found that someone had left the barn doors shut on a cantata f, and turned it on for hours on end. I now have a barn door which has no paint. does anyone know which kind of paint I should use to cover it up??Cheers in advance Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
si_cole Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 I use heat resistant matt black spray paint for stuff like that. Works a treat and you get a really good finish from it. Most lighting/stage supplies places should have it in stock. Hope that helps! :) Si Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fleeting Posted August 12, 2004 Share Posted August 12, 2004 Hi, I've used matt balck Motor cycle exhaust paint before to touch up lanterns and barn doors. You can get it from most car spares places at it will handle up to 500 degrees centigrade. Fleeting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
