Re: painting mirror

yep, you'll wanna clean it again before the base-coat with either a virgin compound or ive found alcohol to work pretty well for projects you dont care toooo much about, but never had any probs with it yet. and thers probly more, i dont know a lot about paint just the basics of prep. im sure somoene else will chime in and help more.
