Great video Nicole! Thank you! I love RUST! It’s so beautiful!

[@savagetwin52]

TU for taking the time to do these 101 videos ❤

[@CSS-rc6kl]

Love watching your videos Nicole! Thanks for all the amazing tips and tricks - have learned so much from them!

[@nicolelegros6467]

I love your videos. You explain everything so well. I am so excited to start trying this!

[@rockndesigns09]

Thanks so much for talking about how you clean the cups even after vinyl applications before epoxy.

[@lifeoflashel5953]

After going thru 3 cups n using mod podge and Loclite i must say this epoxy method was awesome. Thanks so much. I was about to give up. Im so glad i watch and camed upon your video

[@yanettemantro]

Game changer!!! Thanks for this vid!!!

[@TaylorNicole635]

I watched this live and ill rewatch it! Love your videos and your knowledge is endless! ❤

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Thanks, Tay!!!!

[@MsDeejr]

Thank you so much for sharing this. I am a newbie and still learning.I was wondering if you can do a tutorial on how to put pictures on tumblers. I often see Tumblers that the picture looks like it’s blended into the cup. Would really like to see how that’s done. Again thank you for sharing I’ve learned so much from you.

[@erinwilliams363]

Can't wait to get my glitter mail this week with Rust! The epoxy method is my favorite method too!

[@savagetwin52]

I'm jealous😂. New to Nicole's products. But I snagged the Christmas box.

[@TiffanyinOklahoma]

YouR my favorite cup maker on yt

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Awwww!!!Thank you!!!

[@tiabeautymark5453]

Enjoying your channel. I am from Houston as well.

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@CrystalChristianStore]

Please more videos!🙋‍♀️🌹🌹

[@lexxiontherise]

Could you do a video dedicated to vinyl printint and what machine and software you use?

[@aliciamc.486]

This video has really gotten my attention and I want to try this! Do you use the Counter Culture DIY Fast Set Ultra Clear Epoxy? Is there a particular brand of glove you recommend? Could this be done to less expensive tumblers like from Walmart/target until I’m comfortable with the methods? Would this method work for glass (just epoxy and glitter) Sorry for so many questions I just really want to try this!

[@laurafalcon2629]

Thanks for sharing your talents New to this ... where can I get the turner pls Thank you

[@Hollowpointacres]

Hi, how often do your glitters restock? Love your videos

[@lnparker88]

I’m trying this method for the first time today! I did my thin layer of epoxy and began pouring it on as it turned. I prepped my cup with white spray paint and after I did the glitter, I can see some spots of white. Should I do another layer of epoxy once it spins for 4-5 hours to add more glitter?

[@darleneb6661]

Where did you get the glitter? I need a huge container like that. 💜💜

[@alishajohnson1835]

Hi Does the cup have to be sanded. What is the process for the clear acrylic tumblers.

[@veronicaclouse6523]

When using a yeti tumbler how do you keep the yeti name on the bottom clear with no glitter

[@Analysemarie]

Amazing video! Do you sandy your tumbler (when the glitter is already on the cup) before you apply a decal?

[@queenfabbb]

At 14:08 she says she sands it before she puts a decal! ☺️

[@1BestCookie]

Would a dehumidifier in the room help with curing?

[@walkinginfaith134]

Love love love your cup turner, where can i get one ?

[@lilikiss]

I want a cup turner too

[@aliciamc.486]

It’s in the description box and she says it’s her friend’s Etsy shop called “the cup turner” ... hope this helps cuz I may get one too!!

[@jennifergalvan9474]

Loved your video, thank you for sharing! Could you please share where you got your epoxy storage bottles? I hate the bottles they come in, so hard to pour equal measurements out.

[@avogel7667]

They look like food service dressing bottles☺️

[@asmahanmtg8427]

I dont have turner, any substitutes?

[@angelabrown8987]

Where can I get the rose gold stirrer

[@deaninewoestman2674]

Your website says it hasn't launched.... how do we order?

[@lilycessna3077]

So, I watched someone else do ModPodge their glitter then, epoxy afterward. Does it matter what kind of ModPodge to use?

[@CrystalChristianStore]

Where you bought your bulk glitter ✨?

[@IvelisseEP]

Thanks for the video! Just ordered some Rust. The problem I’m having is that I don’t want to use the NMO glitters. I just want them in their little jars just for me to look. Like Gollum “my precious.”

[@savagetwin52]

I understand that 😂

[@amygreen5259]

I am the same way! I am scared to use them😂😂

[@IvelisseEP]

Amy Green I’m scare to run out jajaja

[@ShelbyRoebuck]

Where did you order this from?

[@ashleymilligan8902]

Where did you purchase the turner?

[@marjoryabell5828]

Beautiful! How do u warm the epoxy?

[@nmobrandambassador6953]

With time. Just let it sit for a few minutes. :)

[@mrs.rivers8680]

Love your video! My epoxy got messed up because I did hear it up and it harden. But now I know

[@NICOLEMARETT]

just warm to the touch and move fast :)

[@pamelahunter9865]

The lustre that you're adding to the epoxy base coat - is that just an ultra fine glitter?

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Every now and then I will add a bit of Dusted to my epoxy. Here is my favorite! nmoshop.com/collections/pigment/products/showgirl-super-pot

[@sandragarcia4490]

Do your epoxy bottles leak? I got some but they leak when standing and not in use

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Yessssss! I changed them to honey bottles! Grab some on Amazon.

[@shaelove03]

Do you sand down your tumbler before starting the tumbler or just use alcohol?

[@nmobrandambassador6953]

Both! I sand my tumblers, then wash really well using warm water and a mild dish soap. Once I have affixed my cup to my turner, I do one quick clean with alcohol to remove any oils from my hands.

[@colleenstreet1139]

What epoxy do you use? I’m just now getting started.

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Welcome! I use a few brands depending on the project. I would def recommend Counter Culture DIY

[@marybond7084]

How do I eliminate fish eyes? I seem to have a real problem! I live in Colorado.

[@NICOLEMARETT]

I had fisheyes too! What helped me was wiping the tumbler down with a spritz of alcohol before applying the epoxy. This will remove any oil and finger prints on the cup. Epoxy can be very finicky :)

[@jennifergarza7600]

When will Magic Mailers be available again?

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Invites go out on the first of every month :)

[@kellievans2957]

How do I order the same glitter you used

[@NICOLEMARETT]

I have my own line, Vault Glitter on my site NicoleMarettOriginal.com and I use a lot of PDBlanksandglitter.com

[@lizmcdaniel5635]

do you wear a respirator ? what kind of epoxy do you use

[@NICOLEMARETT]

As a personal choice I do not. I am very claustrophobic and can not stand wearing one. However, I am very cautious. When I do use my Mr. Nola's Epoxy, I make sure that I have plenty of ventilation and air circulation. I usually make one batch and then I'm out.

[@lizmcdaniel5635]

Gotcha. Ty 😊

[@jennystead4847]

Hello Nicole, do you still carry the "rust" glitter you used in this video? The link is broken, and I can't seem to find it on your site.

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Hi Jenny, Rust is a retired glitter, but you can probably find it on a trade group in FB. My next one would be Hamilton.

[@alwaysequal2013]

What glitter is that

[@mellovesstars4]

Newbie here did not know about taping your chunky glitter down 😭 now It’s sticking up and i know it’s going to take several layers to sand and epoxy.... will know for next time learning process

[@vincithomas4209]

I've just started doing tumblers and I keep having a problem with the top edge. The epoxy pulls away from it leaving it rough. I've sanded and done a second coat but still get the rough edge. Any tips on that?

[@AmoreBudgets]

Me too!!.. did you find something out

[@Shearhair1]

Did you sand the mug before you put epoxy on?

[@NICOLEMARETT]

buy them presanded :)

[@jesustorres2159]

Can you use any glitter on epoxy

[@nmobrandambassador6953]

Yes. You can use any type of glitter. Though - The higher quality of glitter you use, the better your results will be. I like to use high quality polyester glitters. :)

[@brendaellerridenour9135]

What are saying you spritz on the prepared tumbler?

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Alcohol 99%

[@jessicaduke4892]

I can’t find your Facebook group 🤔

[@withmandylynn6122]

Are you not currently selling your tumblers? 😰😓

[@triciacollins9581]

Where do you get those bottles for the epoxy?

[@nmobrandambassador6953]

You can find them on Amazon and many other places - Just search FIFO Bottles. :)

[@triciacollins9581]

@@nmobrandambassador6953 just ordered them! Thank you!

[@keshiannmorris7144]

Hi there, what is Part A and part B??

[@NICOLEMARETT]

Epoxy

[@sonyahoffman4487]

Can you do more than one coat of glitter if needed?

[@NICOLEMARETT]

You sure can :)

[@ashleyhuskey5760]

What are fish eyes?

[@nmobrandambassador6953]

Fish eyes are like little divots in your cured epoxy.

[@dsadasey]

Should wear gloves even while mixing the epoxy to avoid any accidental splash or spill on to your skin. Good method otherwise!
