Sealing and Painting an Enclosure

[emilyruth254]

Hi, everyone!

What are your recommendations for paints and sealants? Which brands do you see the most success with? Which are definitely nontoxic for bearded dragons?

Thank ya!

Which are you gonna use? A wood sealer or a paint?
I haven't used paint on the inside before, but pretty much all wood sealers will cure to be safe.
Pretty much everything will be ok for a dragon as long as it's been given ample time to fully cure. This at a minimum means you dont detect any smell anymore.

Paint, preferably. Latex paint, maybe?

Latex would be fine. Personally I'd go with an oil based enamel just because it would hold up better imo.
