Painting lava lamp bases

[Ian]

I was thinking it would be really nice to paint my Grande base a different color, so I was wondering, what kinds of paints should I use? Spray paint? Acrylics? Watercolors? lol jk. But I don't want to set anything on fire, or have the pain melt or change color or something crazy and unexpected because of the heat. So those who have had experience with painting the bases, do you have any tips? Anything is appreciated.

Thanks!

what kind of paint would you use for the detail work here?

Now, if you have mad mad skills like Mandy (and likely Chonzo), you can really go nuts painting a base.  Huge shout out goes out to Blind Faith for allowing me to add this gem to my collection.
