Silly question.

[Fins]

Other than water and a squeegee is there a better way to put a background on a tank?

[rhonin]

I'm assuming this is a plastic film?

That's the only wayI know of unless you get one of the newer "static" cling ones (press on, peel off).

all Ive ever done was tape them to the back.

[aspects]

good ol spray paint always does the trick for me

[souly]

I just tape mine to the back....

I've heard of some using a thin layer of vaseline, although I've never done it myself. Tape here, too.

You can tape them on, or some you can just stick on.

I painted mine with Krylon Plastic paint after trying Vaseline and cooking oil to get the background to stick, neither method worked for me and was a mess to clean off.

Check in the DIY section under backgrounds to see how others have done it, quite a few recommend this stuff,

I like that Sea View product. May give it a try.

I did think, but havn't tried it yet, that a drop or two of soap would help "wet" the back gound better than just plain water, break that surface fillm and alow it to stick better.

Thanks everyone.
