Come craft with me! I offer in-depth tutorials and information on how to best use Epoxy-Free CrystaLac products for tumblers & other crafts. I like to go through the process of why we do things a certain way, and how to best get the product to work for you so that you end up with reliably beautiful, stress-free projects you're proud to show off.
My problem is when I go around and feel a dry spot, I am afraid to add more because I keep thinking it just dried on its way around. So then I get streaks and then I add more and then I get orange peel and then I am totally in my head! Help! Thank you!
Thank you, SOOOOOO much! This is the best tutorial for Brite Tone I’ve watched since switching to epoxy free Crystalc products. Every question I’ve ever had you’ve answered with full explanations as well! I couldn’t be more grateful for finding your channel. Beautiful cup!
If u insist on keeping it on a single sheet, at least take ur knife and cut through only the vinyl.. making sections.. n this case I’d prolly make 2-3 horizontal cuts..
Best tutorial I've seen so far! <3 I am quite new to tumbler making and, as we all know, it can be an intimidating process. Some tutorial tend to jump through some information that might be obvious when you are experienced but not to a beginner. You explain it so well! Thank you for doing this and sharing the knowledge <3
Thank you for the visual for level sanding, it's very helpful! (Maybe turn your background music down a smidge next time though please, it was kind of distracting and hard to hear you!) 😊
Is that round circle made completely with CrystaLac products? I thought it wasn't able to mold into a shape; or is that an acrylic blank with CrystaLac over it?
Hi! I just came across your video and it has answered a lot of questions for me. So thank you! But I’m curious if you can seal your Crystalac basecoat with BT first, and then add the alcohol ink over it? And then obviously continue on with the steps you’ve mentioned. Thanks!
Can the temperature give you trouble with bubbles? I want to love this product and switch from epoxy but I am having so many bubble issues. I have tried everything I can think of and continue to get bubbles. Temperature and humidity and my last things to look into.
Hi .. thank you for this tutorial when I sand, I feel like this is such a silly question .. when I’m sanding am I sanding the high spots that are dull, all the way down to the low spots that are shiny so they are flush or am I just wanting to take away the shine from the high spots and then add the CrystaLac and it will fill in the low spots?
can you do a vid on how exactly u made this color with the Uw& pigments the chocolate milk color and also how u make the woodgrain with the pigments? because i have pigments and not the ink and im a visual learner as well
I tried a wood grain on a glass mug and my base coat which was FNA white paint still started to lift off as I was using the crystalac inks which I didn’t think would happen b/c I’m not using any alcohol.
Hello, Is this still the same method you use now? I use the crystalac 400 grit sandpaper but notice my base coats go on streaky and take several layers to build opposed to your base coating is thick and applies super well the first time...what am I doing wrong?
This was sooooo perfect! Thank you for this Information! I was thinking of doing a glitter base, then brite tone, letting it dry then doing the alcohol ink. Thank you!!!!! I’ll let the brute tone dry for 48+!! Thank you sooooo much!
