L Awww, Thank you so much and welcome ❤️

[@annagodfrey4689]

Love both of these!!! I have yet to get a good hydro dip. My paint always clumps up before I dip my cup. Wondering if my water is to cold. I couldn’t help but laugh about the lawn mower. By the way I have a neighbor who gets on his lawn mower 7 days a week rain or sunshine 😂

[@RebeccaEscott]

Anna Godfrey Lmao, right. Any other time no lawn mower. Hahaha

[@HelloImAru]

This one is my favorite and I'm so jealous that I can't get my hydrodips to look this good!

[@RebeccaEscott]

Peachfaced Just keep practicing, one day you’re just going to get it and you’ll love it ❤️

[@cecegilbert]

How do you protect the paint?

[@taygansepulveda45]

How long so you have to let it dry before epoxy

[@savannahterry4656]

I watch so many videos on here and everyone's looks so pretty. But every time I do it the paint clumps up on my cup before I can even get it fully submerged in the water. Am I going to slow when I dip it or what??

[@stefaniegodfrey6155]

It must be the prepping how did u prep your object first

[@uhleeshuh188]

When you epoxy over it can you see the air bubbles? If not turn what do you doing to get rid of them?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Alicia Rust All bubbles from water are gone by the time I Epoxy as one way or the other they have dried.

[@treasuresbyivyjade]

I love your Chanel I have 2?’s what do you do about the paint inside the tumbler? and How do you get all the bubbles popped

[@RebeccaEscott]

Thank you so much, Paint will get inside the cup when doing this method and to clean it, I just use acetone and a mr. clean eraser and it cleans right up. To pop most as I can never get all I use a heat gun to push off as much of the remaining water as possible. I hope I was able to answer your questions and let me know if you have any others and anything I can help you with.

[@mistynoble1532]

I have a couple questions do you need to seal it with anything? And will vinyl stick to it afterwards? Also how do they hold up? Are they hand wash only?

[@RebeccaEscott]

misty noble No these were done with spray paints so no need to seal, I would recommend a thin coat of epoxy before decals. These cups hold up very well and yes they are hand wash only.

[@stirer1]

Love the video , I’m just wondering how do you stop the paint from going inside the cup and can this be done with a tumbler with a handle pls

[@RebeccaEscott]

I can't stop the paint from getting inside because of the way I dip my cups, This can defiantly be done with a handled cup.

[@saltlifegaming9324]

@@RebeccaEscott how do you clean the inside of your cups? I tried this and now I have paint all in the inside?

[@RebeccaEscott]

@@saltlifegaming9324 I use a magic eraser as well as acetone to remove any paint.

[@saltlifegaming9324]

@@RebeccaEscott I have one from Dollar Tree that has a plastic ring around the bottom and top, Acetone will probably destroy it?

[@wifeyfew1728]

Hey, do you use any spray paint? When you prime the tumblers can I use the paint & primer spray? Also how can I add glitter to it?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Yes, I use any brand to hydro dip, though the metallic spray paints can be very tricking in the water, I've never tried with paint and primer combined, couldn't hurt to see if it works. You can not add glitter to the water but you can use epoxy glitter additives for a final coat and the whole cup will sparkle.

[@pamelastellfox1293]

Gorgeous! What temp water did you use and about how far are you spraying?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Pamela Stellfox I let my Water-hose water try and cool before spraying into my buckets and I never hydro dip in direct sunlight and I would say I spray fairly close to my water.

[@TREWHIT1]

Did you know that if you use clear spray paint also it'll help separate the colors some?

[@RebeccaEscott]

TREW HIT No I didn’t know that, that’s awesome. Thank you so much for the tip and I’ll be sure to try that. ❤️

[@sherri101801]

I'm wondering if these are regular water tumblers? How do you get the paint from going into the cup? What are you using to hold the cup for dipping? What do you do after the paint drys? Can you use a plastic tumbler instead? Can you wash these in the dishwasher or hand wash? Safe for drinking out of or used for something else instead?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Craig's mom I don’t worry to much about the paint getting inside I just clean them with acetone when I’m done, I use my football holders to dip them, once the paint dries I epoxy they don’t have to be sealed. Yes I’m sure plastic cups are okay to dip, These cups need to only be hand washed. These are definitely safe to drink from. I hope I answered your questions, let me know if you have anything more I can help you with. ❤️

[@hopebarker4587]

I just watched your tutorial but I'm confused on what to do after dipping. Do I let it dry upside down or on the turner? How do I clean the inside of the cup? Does the outside need sanded before epoxied?

[@RebeccaEscott]

I just leave the tumbler to dry upside down, once you epoxy the tumbler then you clean the rim, these were painted with fresh paint so no they were not sanded.

[@jennifertristan4566]

So I tried one this weekend and did same way but had lots of air bubbles , I did see that you say they go away but they look like gory bubbles do those away and if so how long do you let the cup dry for ?

[@RebeccaEscott]

jennifer tristan It doesn’t usually take to long to dry, If they are real bad they are not likely to go away.

[@bribri8042]

Hey Jennifer. I’m trying my hand at hydro dipping, too. Did you find a way to eliminate/reduce air bubbles? I’m using a heat torch, too, and nothing seems to help.

[@BigCatSurff]

I’m going to use your tutorial for my skateboard! Idk how I got here lol

[@RebeccaEscott]

I think that is so cool please let me know how it worked.

[@msbrown51611]

How do you stop the colors from getting on the inside of the cup

[@RebeccaEscott]

Keke Brown I don’t really prevent the paints from getting inside, so I do have to clean it with acetone and then soap and water.

[@alissaperry4210]

Do metallic colors dry quickly? My first attempt was an epic fail. Lol. I used pinks, grey and metallic rose gold. I dipped and globs of paint was stuck to my tumbler. Tried again minus the metallic and it looked great. Actually let’s rephrase that. I gave it a 2nd try same colors. Swirled with plastic fork and it clumped up. Cleaned that and left metallic out. Worked like magic. Any tips?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Oh yeah, metallics can be super, super tricky I dont have any real tips on those.

[@BeBaBoO17]

What if you glitter the cup first and then do the dip is it possible 🤔

[@RebeccaEscott]

Its possible and with beautiful results, kzbin.info/www/bejne/pmW8ip1qgK2Bm9k Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays

[@krazjays4209qdd]

These came out absolutely fantastic! Prettiest dips I have seen yet! Now, how much gets inside the cup & is it easy to remove? Do you just use acetone?

[@RebeccaEscott]

krazjays4209qdd It’s not to bad, but yes easy clean up with acetone, soap and water ❤️

[@nancywebb3334]

There's a new thing you can get called Tumbler Shields that keeps the paint from getting inside

[@RebeccaEscott]

@@nancywebb3334 I had no idea, Thank you so much for the tip. When I get them, I will be sure to give you a shout out for having made the suggestion. Its greatly appreciated.

[@annagodfrey4689]

Nancy Webb thank you so much for sharing that!!! I just looked them up. Question for you- are the silicone shields to prevent epoxy from getting in your cups? And the hydro lid added to that is for hydro dipping?

[@nancywebb3334]

Anna Godfrey yes. They have a Facebook group “Tumbler Shields”. They have different tutorials on there

[@kokopellicodcs3499]

I can NEVER mix my paints without it wrapping around my stick using a very thin stick, toothpick or popsicle stick. Have ANY idea WHY this could be happening?

[@sherellehutcheson2437]

Do you put them on the turner to dry?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Sherelle Hutcheson I usually put them on a dry rack for a couple hrs. But a turner would work too.

[@TheRodriguezFam]

The paints were they gloss non gloss like what do you recommend. These came out stunning I just did my first two and it is so addicting lol but that gold and gum drop 😍

[@RebeccaEscott]

The Rodriguez Fam Tbh they could have been a mix I know the gum drop is a gloss. I’m sorry I don’t have all the answers as to which was which. They are super addicting ❤️

[@TheRodriguezFam]

Creative Vinyl Designs By Rebecca Escott appreciate the response. I’m just trying to see if it matters with gloss or without. 🤷🏼‍♀️ lol my husband going have to make a shelf for me lol just for paint haha. Xoxox

[@RebeccaEscott]

The Rodriguez Fam Oh yes lol the shelves you’ll soon see will be mandatory lmao, idk if it makes a difference but now that you mention it I’m curious. ❤️

[@TheRodriguezFam]

Creative Vinyl Designs By Rebecca Escott haha thanks love 💕 happy crafting 🙏🏼

[@daniellegonzales9367]

Did you seal after dipping and before applying epoxy? If so, how long did the seal dry before epoxy?

[@RebeccaEscott]

I do not believe I did however you most definitely can seal them prior to epoxy, usually in about 30 mins or so or when you know your clear seal is fully dry you can epoxy.

[@ashleym6983]

Does the tumbler texture matter? I’m seeing a lot of sublimation tumblers and am nervous they may be too smooth?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Ashley M Im sorry I’m not sure what you mean.

[@ashleym6983]

I’m trying to order some tumblers for marbling, but everyone I see looks shiny as if it’s epoxied or just super smooth. I’m nervous the marbling won’t grab onto it. Sorry I’m sure I’m not explaining it right

[@jayschwartz3440]

Ashley M typically they put a base coat on the cups white or black sometimes even clear

[@yaridance12]

What would you do if you don’t have a heat torch?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Yaritza Rodriguez I would use a blow dryer, it’s purpose is to just help push away the excess water.

[@kristenmitchell7305]

What temperature is the water? Does it matter if it’s cold or warm?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Kristen Mitchell My water was cold, cold water is better in my opinion ❤️

[@marcijones693]

Could Mod podge or polycrylic be used instead of epoxy? These are stunninggggg

[@RebeccaEscott]

marci jones Not for a long term use. Epoxy is the best sealer bc it’s fda approved and if the cup is cared for the right way they will last years.

[@wileycovington4497]

Use Crystalac. It's nontoxic.

[@RebeccaEscott]

@@wileycovington4497 Im actually thinking about testing this product.

[@wileycovington4497]

I love Crystalac. I've never used epoxy because of all of the allergy warnings. I couldn't take the risk. I do my cups right in our bedroom before we go to sleep.

Its Dammayana I used a heat gun very very carefully just help blow off the extra water drips.

[@SavanhaAndStacie]

How did you prep your cup!

[@RebeccaEscott]

I wipe them down with rubbing alcohol and then I paint. ❤️

[@kevinklein8231]

So I wanted to try just your basic black & white marble look. Is there specific paints (spray paints) to use for this? As when I tried it, the paint I had created what looked like oil bubbles in the water which turned the “swirls” into smudged circles/bubbles, ONLY SMUDGE BUBBLES........ any suggestions would help drastically

[@RebeccaEscott]

Kevin Klein Yes, so in my experience with these hydro dips, don’t use hot water and if at all possible keep your bucket in the shade. Also I used both Krylon and rustoleum to achieve this effect. I really hope this helps.

[@BeBaBoO17]

So what about the bubbles ?

[@heatherwiklund6357]

Where did you find the gumball paint ?!

[@RebeccaEscott]

Walmart or Home Depot, cant recall which one.

[@MEM2022]

how do you clean the inside?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Mirna Montano I just acetone to clean it up.

[@angeliquemarquez4441]

Angelique Marquez I painted both cups one black and one white, I purchase all my tumblers now from Marshall Made Tumblers and More.

[@kaybryant7987]

Can you use any spray paint

[@RebeccaEscott]

Yes but my favorite brand is Rustoleum

[@jerritanner275]

I get big ol’ paint boogers when I use a skewer. How do you avoid that?

[@RebeccaEscott]

Maybe try a stick or even an old straw maybe to help swirl the paints, sometimes it’s hard to avoid them when using metallic paints. Also this technique is best done out of direct sunlight this can help insure that your water isn’t to hot, so your paints don’t freeze up when they hit the water. I really hope this makes since.

[@jerritanner275]

@@RebeccaEscott yes, it does. I was using metallics. Ty!

[@RebeccaEscott]

@@jerritanner275 Ok that could be part of the issue, try again but see if in the shade helps and if the water is a little cooler that should also help. Please keep me posted ok.

[@RebeccaEscott]

@@TheSewingBaddie Absolutely, when using heat, you wanna move quick so you don’t burn the paint so you should never be smelling the paint if so it’s most likely burned and that would not be good.
