Review: Martha Stewart Glass Paint from Plaid

[@googlehater3079]

Tuesday Morning had these for $.99 a couple of years ago. I haven't used them yet but was hoping to use them on paper and on my gelli plate.

This was very helpful. I am going to paint some old window frames with flowers.

Oh, and it's the transparent gloss that I'm TOTALLY stoked about. I want to color some bottles and jars. But also, I was thinking of coloring some of those Tim Holtz little light bulbs...with Halloween colors...and maybe use the fine glitter too...wouldn't that be cool on a project or two?

Can you do a video using the glass paint (preferably transparent glossy) and the Martha Stewart Spray Paint system?

[@simplethingsbykathy1]

I am confused. I went to your blog, you said the paints work great. How so if the paint comes off?

[@niellalien]

Aw man, so the paint chips! How about when it's been air dried? Had a bad feeling about these paints... :( Is there another brand that you recommend? I don't want anything that chips that easily. Thank you for this review!

I used the Delta Air Dry Perm Enamel years ago. Have been washing in the dishwasher forever and still like new!! Since it's no longer available I bought the Martha Stewart paints. Followed all directions and made a beautiful set of dishes (service for 20!!). To be on the safe side, I put them away for 5 months. Finally decided they needed to be tested and washed. They FAILED!! All that hard work just melted away in the dishwasher!! I don't know what to to now with the dishes that couldn't fit in the machine. Thinking of maybe sealing it with old Delta paint I might have left over :(

I am also a Delta Air Dry painter. I'm so lost! I can't find a paint that will adhere to the glasses that I paint. I was hopeful about the Martha Stewart paint, but, I guess not. What a disappointment. This video was very helpful

Thank you for the video. It was a great review. I love, love, love the bowl. It is STUNNING!!!Take care. :)

Adrienneisn- I'm not sure that the spray system is compatible with glass paints. :-/

[@pcosmom]

I almost bought some of this just a few days ago...but decided I needed to wait for my next check...I had too many in my cart! LOL

First, I cannot believe that this paint comes with nearly NO instructions! What's so hard (or costly) about having a pull-out brochure attached to the bottle? Sheesh! Also, I cannot find the answer to my question ANYWHERE. Not on Plaid, goog, this video, or Amazon. No where! Here goes: I am wanting to paint the inside of a round, clear, glass lamp. I went to Michael's looking for some sort of 'stained glass' type of paint, but unfortunately, Martha's glass paint was the only glass paint I could find. I'm wanting to ROLL it around the INSIDE of the glass lampshade, but this stuff is so THICK, that I don't think it will roll. I don't want to brush it on, b/c I don't want brush strokes. Does anyone know if I can dilute it, and if so, would it stick to the glass? Or....????? Thanks!

+Diane McElhaney Use the Mod Podge Tints. Or you can use the translucent and just thin it down a little.

What a disappointment. When you paint glasses to sell, you need to know that the paint will stay on. Such a shame. This was very helpful for me.
