Why bother painting it? U can just get a red beam bulb, Not worth it cause there will be a time when u need it and cant see for $hit:lala:

 

I got one. It faded in two days

 

thats why

 

Go to a theatrical lighting supply place and get some of the transleucent red film they use to color the lights on stage (ask for "gels"). It should come in rolls or sheets. Then you can cut pieces out to fit. They make a much more uniform color, and they don't fade even under extreme heat (think about how hot those stage lights get). Plus, you can remove them very quickly if you need white light, or want to change colors.

I've thought about cutting out kits of those and selling them.
