I was makin my bubble bucket and I was spray painting the outside and accidently got some inside my res but didnt know until it was almost dry, when I put water in my res will the water dissolve the paint over time and kill my plants or will it be fine. Also I used rubber cement and super glue to put down my two air stones, is this kind of glue ok.

I would replace it and try not to use paint or glue on the new one.

Why are you waiting for an answer or asking at all? Common sense would say clean it out or replace the res. Simple really.

It sucks but we all have set backs. If you want less problems to arise, clean or replace before use. If lazy people could grow cannabis street prices would be 10 bucks an oz.

Is there anything I can do to either sand it off or some kind of chemical that will eat it off or some kind of liquid rubber or something to remove or cover it. I had to custom make my res because of the dimentions of my grow room out of two rubbermade tubs not one that is why I dont want to have to redo it.

Change it out. But my question is why did you glue the airstones down? They don't float and will need cleaned at some point.

Dude, you'll be fine. Just let everything dry out really well, give it a good wash and use it. If you're super worried about the spray paint, use some paint thinner to take it off...just be sure to hose everything down and maybe even wash with a little bleach and water.

You glue the airstones down so they don't move.

Enjoy!
