Painting on glass, porcelain and ceramics

 
Painting on glass and porcelain is one of the most popular decorative techniques, suitable for both beginners and advanced artists. With it, you can personalize cups, plates, bottles, vases, candlesticks and other objects, creating unique home decorations or original handmade gifts.
In this category you will find a wide variety of glass paints , porcelain paints , contours, alcohol inks, matting products and other materials designed specifically for working on smooth surfaces.
 

What types of paints for glass and porcelain are there?

 
Glass and porcelain paints are mainly divided into water-based paints and alcohol (solvent)-based paints .
 

Water-based paints

 
These paints are easy to use, almost odorless and allow for easy brush cleaning. Most products require oven curing according to the manufacturer's instructions to make the decoration wash-resistant.
 

Alcohol (solvent) based paints

 
Alcohol-based paints do not require baking. After they dry completely, they form a durable coating and are suitable for decorative objects that do not require thermal fixation.
 

What is the difference between stained glass and solid paints?

 
Depending on the final effect, you can choose different types of paints.
 

Stained glass paints

 
Stained glass paints color glass while maintaining its transparency. They are suitable for windows, bottles, vases, candlesticks, and other objects through which light passes.
 

Solid paints

 
Dense paints cover the surface completely and create a rich color layer without transparency. They are suitable for decorative elements, inscriptions and drawings with rich colors.
 

What surfaces can they be used on?

 
Depending on the specific product, the materials can be used on:
  • glass;
  • porcelain;
  • ceramics;
  • faience;
  • glazed surfaces.
Always check the manufacturer's instructions regarding fixing method and recommendations for use.
 

What supporting materials can be used?

 
In addition to glass paints and porcelain paints , the category also includes products that expand the possibilities for decoration.
 

Glass contours

 
The outlines are used to outline the motifs and prevent the more liquid stained glass paints from spilling. In addition to their practical function, they can also be used as a decorative element.
 

Glass and porcelain markers

 
They are suitable for drawing fine lines, inscriptions and small decorative elements. Some of the markers are fixed by baking and then become resistant to washing.
 

Alcohol inks

 
Alcohol inks create smooth gradients and striking abstract drawings on smooth, non-absorbent surfaces.
 

Glass engraving paste

 
The engraving paste creates a durable matte effect that resembles real etched glass.
 

Mattifying gel

 
The matting gel gives a uniform matt effect to the glass surface and is suitable for a variety of decorative techniques.
 

Mirror effect spray

 
It creates a mirror-effect coating on glass objects and is suitable for making decorative accessories and interior projects.
 

Do glass and porcelain paints need to be fired?

 
Not all. Water-based paints usually require baking in an oven to make them resistant to washing. Alcohol (solvent)-based paints dry at room temperature and do not require additional fixing.
 

How to prepare the surface before painting?

 
To achieve maximum adhesion and long-lasting results, thoroughly clean and degrease the surface before applying the paint. This helps to evenly distribute the color and improves the durability of the finished decoration.
