  1. yes of course... but wouldnt it b easier to just go buy one?


  2. not only will the room go darker, you may start a fire.

    painting a lightbulb is a very bad idea.

  3. you have to use the right type of paint

    or the bulb could burst into flames once the paint reached the right temperature...

    got to an art shop for glass paint,  Tell them you are going to use it on a bulb.

    some low wattage normal bulbs like a 25watt, candle bulb,  normally used for bedside lamps,  even they can get very hot.

  4. buy a blck light bulb

    try ebay or an electrical shop

  5. LOL Of course it will.

  6. You need to be careful, as this would create a black hole and suck all your furniture into it.

  7. yes

  8. Yes and the smell of burning paint will keep you awake.  If you want a darker room, buy a darker bulb.  They are available in all hardware stores.  Use darker shades instead of white ones.  Kill all overhead lighting in your room.  Or put in dimmers for all your light switches.

  9. not a good idea, but if you must paint it use enamel paint.

    P.S.   a bulb would be cheaper than the paint.

  10. No, but it might start a fire!

    Put in a lower wattage bulb, for Pete's sake.

    You can get them as small a 7 watts.

  11. this is where I sneeze and say idiot  

  12. no but it will start a fire most likely XD

  13. Don't think it would be a good idea to paint the bulb!   Buy one of these bulbs instead....

    Why bother with a black bulb - live in the dark :(

    edit: dipthong - maybe you should keep your sunglasses on - it would save you having to buy a bulb ;)
