How to make your own outliner for Glass Painting. 

Glad you found it. Good luck with your project.

Good luck with iit. Let us know how you get on.

Thank you. I sometimes wonder if I talk too much so am trying to tighten up on that a little and cut out some of the "padding".

And hello back from a rather cold UK. Hope you're enjoying the holidays.

"Hello" from hot india✌✌

Welcome to our Channel.

Hi Ansar, nice to see you on here again. Yes after a bit of a break (not my choice) I got back to it earlier last year. Really enjoying it again. Hope all is well with you.

I've been busy, looking at various arts, glass painting still close to my heart. Just don't have the time anymore but the mind boggling with glass painting ideas

I'm sure you will return to it at some stage... I have been dabbling with watercolours for a couple of year. I'm not very good with them but I really do enjoy it.

You are welcome. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Glad you found it useful. You might like to take a look at this slightly updated video which also covers making your own paints.

@@GlassPainting Thank you, that's great x

It sound OK from your description BUT, as always, I would recommend testing just to ensure it doesn't react to the paint etc.

Unfortunately because the outliner needs to be put in the oven I am unable to recommend any home made version (as i don't know what chemicals are in various products or how they will react to being heated). There is another make of oven bake outliner which you may want to compare to the Pebeo one for price and availability. "Lefranc & Bourgeois Glass & Tile Paint Outliner ". Hope that helps.

Thank you!

Yes, the type you would put round a show tray or sink. Make sure it's the flexible type (most are).

This is a flexible bathroom filler. The sort of stuff you would seal the bath, shower or window with. If an outliner has "Thickened" and is waterbased then you can try adding a few drops of water to make it smoother. Only add a few drops at a time give it a really good stir. Unfortunately if it has actually dried then there is nothing you can do. This newer article might make the process of making your own clearer: www.glasspainting.co.uk/glass-painting-projects/glass-painting-using-household-items

Where can I get this flexible bathroom filler?

I would think you could use acrylic paint but best to do a little test first. If you want to seal paints I would normally use a clear uv varnish (spray) but again I haven't done this with acrylics so another test would be good.

How about a thick(ish) waterbased glue?

@@GlassPainting thank you, will give it a try.

Yes basically. There are a number of sealants that will work. Just ensure it's the flexible type.

It could be although I admit the paint I used was pretty cheap! You can try other things for the colour. In the past I used watercolour paints (just because I had them around) and printer ink! (First thing I would check it that the acrylic paints haven't separated so you are getting watery/colourless stuff off the top).

Glass Painting thank you very much for your reply. The paints aren't separating but I think I may experiment with a powdered dye instead, that way it wouldn't water it down. Thanks again, very new to this but trying to start my own business doing this in Canada :)

When I sold finished items for a living I used Plaid Gallery Glass outliner. It's a "soft" outliner so it can be washed down but not soaked. The bonus was I could get it in large 8oz (240ml) bottles which made it cost effective, even more so because I was buying it at trade prices!

Glass Painting I will look for that size. The largest I've been able to find it 2 ounces. Here in Canada things are extremely over priced. For example the exact sealant you use I can see is about 5 Canadian dollars when bought from screw fix....which doesn't ship to Canada. On Amazon.ca which usually has the cheapest stuff around it is 62 dollars. (I found the same stuff from a local company) I want to make any profit I'm going to have to make it myself Lol!

the method used in this video should work fine. Just use black acrylic paint rather than one of the other colours.

High weather temperatures shouldn't affect them but they may "dry out" a little, meaning they will peel off but not re-stick. If this does happen just wipe down the back of the peelie with a damp cloth and you should be fine again. Having them too close to a cooker or something may be an issue. Soap and water should be fine, I regularly wash them down on the windows. Sometimes if they get very wet some of the areas may go "cloudy", especially if you have used clear paint. However that soon goes away. Hope that helps.

There are two types of outliner, a soft one and a hard one. Both will stick to glass fine. If I am using a bought one I tend to use Gallery Glass Liquid Lead. Again there are many solvent based glass paints. I mostly use Pebeo Vitrail but also use Lefranc & Bourgeois and Marabu. You will find reviews of various outliners and paints on our site. Hope this helps.

Thank you. I have all purpose caulk. Can I use that as an out-liner?

I haven't used that particular brand but having just looked it up it does seem like the type of thing you can use. Can a suggest doing a small test so if it doesn't work for any reason they you don't waste too much.

Glass Painting - Can you use this liner on ceramic and bake it as well?
