Hi all :)

It won't be long before Maggie and Sheldon will be wanting their new vivs, and I'd like to upgrade Sonny. I know what vivs I want but I don't like either colour they do.

Could I just paint and varnish or is there some stick on vinyl I could use?

Thanks

Scaly

I used some black fablon type stuff to cover the hardboard back of one of my viv stacks to make it better to clean. I made sure there were no edges that could be lifted by the snakes and I haven't had a problem with it. I bought it on a large roll off ebay as I originally was going to use it to cover my kitchen cupboards.

You could buy that stuff that is used to coat vivs but I can't remember what its called. Could use a wood stainer if they are safe, sure there is waterproof/weather ones. Not 100% sure if they are safe but I can't see why not.



A very special super, duper thanks for K :3
