Thanks! It's actually not that hard. All you need are some acrylic paints, a toothpick and a micro fiber shop towel. I dilute the black paint and drip it into all the sunken areas, then wipe the shop towel across the surface after a minute or so. It picks some of the paint up on the way over and then spreads it on the surface. After I do a lot of the panel lines and screens and such I come back with the micro fiber, put diluted paint on it and go to town scrubbing everywhere. It's easy to control how dirty and worn the tank looks and clean up is easy too.

On another note, my amps work great, the speaker is very loud and now I just need to build an enclosure and get this wired up! Tweaking the sound files a little bit right now.
