Airline Tubing

[interpet123]

Hi all, how would any of you guys go about turning some clear airline tubing black, cos white against my black background really stands out. I know i should just buy black tubing, but i don't really want to!! Any help!! Thanks, alex

Black tubing will probably be cheaper than the alternative - painting the tubing black, as the cheapest suitable paint (bearing in mind the airline will be partially submerged) is the better part of £10 when you include delivery:

I've just ordered some of that to paint a filter inlet and outlet.

why not just buy black airline tubing?

even though it's co2 tubing it's still cheaper than paint!
