              I'd try to trade it for a tan one if possible before I tampered with perfection.

                    I think you could do it with a paint I used to use for painting signs called "One Shot." You will need to order online or find a sign painter supply. It lasts for YEARS in the Texas sun and is as impervious to weather as any paint. Plus, it doesn't require a clear coat if you don't want to mess with that.

                    You'll need to thin it with paint thinner to spray it through an airbrush- look for the consistency of whole milk. Scuff/sand the surface prior to painting. It's not absolutely necessary but you'll get a better adhesion, which is always better. You can probably get away with 1 coat but I would do 3 to get a great paint job. Let each coat dry 12-24hrs - the longer the better.

                    Good luck! Hope this helps.

                        Where did you hear that? My roommate has one and it don't hold ice worth a darn. Within a couple hrs the ice is half gone and by the next day it's all hot water and that's leaving it in the house.




                        I would camo dip it.

                          Try painting it to look like an igloo and it might hold ice longer!!

                            if you try and paint it, you will have a butt ugly $50 yeti that everyone will think is stolen and not buy....

                            send it out to be dipped in that hydrographics stuff...I have seen a lid that looks really nice...don't know why they couldn't do the entire thing...
