It would be nice to see the set up with what you use inside and what pole and pipe to stand it.

[@nickiantoinette5224]

This is great! Thank you for this video. Especially the bloopers!

[@jamieisaacs8375]

I appreciate you showing us the mistakes you made on the first one, it helps to know what won't work and why. Can't wait to try this!

[@dianebaumann612]

Love how you swirl the cup and do t have the stringy stuff stuck to it! Beautiful!

[@kimberleenutt5779]

THANK YOU FOR SHOWING WHAT DIDN'T WORK!!!! I think both cups look great but I love the second one and the fact that explained both the first and second attempt!

[@lisa9195]

Oh I love the colors!! I want to try this.

This was a wonderful video! I've been watching a lot of tutorials as I have a few items I want to hydro dip with a marble look and your video is the best I've seen! I love that you explained, not just the basic "how to" but also some mistakes and what to watch out for and such. Wonderful!! Thank you so so much!! Your mugs looked amazing!

Thanks you!

[@Bushwixmami]

Thank you for being honest, I tried about 3 times and none have been successful when I get a chance I’m going to try it the same way you did on the video maybe different colors

[@roniethdayao9259]

This is really nice! Can i ask how did you remove the excess paint that went inside the tumbler?

[@evelynjorge3382]

Awesome videos!

[@briand.2365]

Hi! Love your video! May I ask if you don't mind telling how did you prep your tumbler? Did you just spray paint it or did you sand paper it first? Thank you. ❤️

[@JLynne227]

You’re so cute lmao I loved this tutorial. Straight to the point and easy.

[@bamagirl234u]

That's beautiful! I've tried a few times & a couple turned out ok but this is the look I'm really going for. Thank you for sharing! Do you use cold or warm water? I've heard conflicting things on this but I love how yours turned out, so I'd like to know the water temp you use. Thanks again for sharing. And I feel better after seeing your mess-ups since I've had several mess-ups. Lol. Beautiful tumbler!!

[@robingriffiths9830]

Super easy to follow, thank you for the great tutorial! Have you done any mug tumblers? Just curious if it will work with a handle.

[@tamechavelazquez6404]

I’m glad I found this. I like videos that get right to the point. Does this work on plastic tumblers as well?

[@britneymonarque88]

Did you let your first white coat gas off for 48hrs before dipping?

The double dipped one is still cute!! Instead of epoxy can i use mod podge?

[@makinganrn7608]

You could, I will say I'm not sure how long it will last in terms of longevity.

What do you call that thingy inside the tumbler that you’re holding when you dip it in? You’re very helpful! Thank you x

You could just fit your hand inside and twirl your hand

Where did you dump your paint water?

[@novamoisio-roach8263]

What is it that is in your tumbler to dip it?

[@bigdaddy-rl2vq]

hello, dumb question here does it matter what kind of paint you use? like tge base of it, like water based, oil, acrylic, alcohol?

[@makinganrn7608]

I think water based won't work as well sitting on top of the water for dipping, I used just regular spray paint.

[@PaddyB26]

Hi what did you put over the paint after the paint dried to protect it?

[@makinganrn7608]

I used epoxy!

[@robira1313]

[@makinganrn7608]

I used an attachment for one of my tumbler turners that came with it! :)

[@MMArmorySTX]

How do you cure it??? Or make it a little more scratch resistant

[@makinganrn7608]

I used epoxy!

[@robira1313]

I think if the water was a tad warmer, the paint would not clump so quickly, if at all.

[@Just_Another_Blonde]

Hey :) what temperature should the water be or does it matter?

[@makinganrn7608]

I had used cold-ish water, but I feel like warm water would probably work as well if not better!

[@ashbrizelle]

what did you put on the tumblers after you let them dry ?

[@makinganrn7608]

Epoxy! 🥰

[@crimsondiva82]

How long do you let the white paint dry?

[@makinganrn7608]

It’s spray paint so however long the bottle says. In this case, 20 mins or so.

[@paulinamontano4176]

Hi!!! What’s color is the pink one? Love it!

[@makinganrn7608]

I linked the paint in the video description!

[@robira1313]

Pink

[@maddisonszebuntschak2128]

can you put it in the dishwasher with or without eproxy?

[@makinganrn7608]

You cannot put epoxy in the dishwasher. This is hand wash only.

[@coolercolerandmomiser8751]

Is there particular temperature for the water?

[@makinganrn7608]

The water I used was cold, but I haven't tried it with warm water yet!

[@sandracarrillo5150]

How did you clean the paint from the inside of the cup?

[@makinganrn7608]

I used a little bit of epoxy on any of the paint that got inside and then just ripped it out. Similar to waxing your legs.

[@amypennington5216]

The paint doesn’t get inside of the cup ?

[@Pottedlady]

When you dipped your tumbler and took it out, did you have bubles

[@makinganrn7608]

I did not have bubbles, did you sand and prep your cup before dipping?

[@monaestrada4620]

Can u use acrylic paint

[@makinganrn7608]

I'm not sure if it would work with acrylic paint.

[@robira1313]

Acrylic paint is water-based and would not work well for hydro dipping. The paint would just sink to the bottom of the water. You really want an oil-based paint.

[@lilct9994]

How do you make those handles that would be so much easier than putting my hand in it with a glove on

Paint will not get inside the cup because the lid is on and taped down.
