Galaxy, thank you so much for that info!<br />
I was going a bit crazy trying to find something to paint the bulb w/... each paint I found on the net had one problem or another.<br />
<br />
And I emailed Krylon about the trans. spray I saw but they never got back to me yet: I have an Ace hardware right by me so I figured I'd just pick up a can there... but I really don't want the exploding bulb or the fire from it!<br />
Thanks again. :O)

Go to your local craft store and buy "Vitrea Brand" Glass Paint for your lightbulb project, (Transparent version, not the frosted kind since they make both sheens). You paint it on as a Gel, and then after it dries at room temp for a bit, then turn on the lamp. It will smoke for a while, but this is normal as it cures the paint permanently (otherwise put the bulb in the oven as the directions will say) either way this heat cures it on for good. Now you have a Colored Appliance bulb!<br />

PS the Krylons spray paint is probably not meant for this heat and could explode and or cause a fire since the chemicals in it may not be heat rated. The Vitrea glass paint as mentioned above can exceed over 350 degrees!
