What kind of paint stays on a mug?
Glass Mugs If your mug is glass, you have a few options: paints made specifically for glass, acrylic paint and glass paint markers. One type of glass paint air dries and does not require any special finishing. The other type requires oven baking to ensure permanency and that it will be heat-resistant and waterproof.
How do you keep design on a mug?
How can I keep the decoration on my coffee mug from fading or chipping away? The best way to protect the life of your mug is by hand-washing it, regardless of whether it’s technically safe for the dishwasher. The extreme temperatures of dishwashers have been known to cause imprints to fade or chip away prematurely.
How do you write on a mug without it washing off?
Bake your mug to set the paint. Place your mugs on a rimmed baking sheet (makes getting them in and out of the oven easier) and place them in a cold oven. Turn the oven on to 375 degrees and let it come to heat. Once preheated, let the mugs bake for 25 minutes.
How do you paint a mug that won’t wash off?

- Decorate your mugs with the paint markers of your choice.
- Allow drying.
- Set the oven to 350 degrees.
- Bake mugs in the oven for 1 hour to set the paint.

Does acrylic paint stay on mugs?
Acrylic paint is also suitable for most ceramic mugs. However, some acrylics are designed specifically for unglazed ceramics. Check the label before purchasing. After you paint your mug and allow it to dry, use a clear sealant to add shine and prevent the acrylic paint from cracking.
How do you keep acrylic paint on mugs?
After the paint dries, place the mug in a cold oven and set the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Allow the oven to come to temperature for about 10 minutes, then bake the mug for 30 minutes. Acrylic paint will stick and adhere to stone and glass, but it can be removed even after thoroughly drying.
What is a good sealant for acrylic paint?
Three brands of acrylic polymer varnish that I would recommend are: Golden Polymer Varnish, Liquitex Acrylic Polymer Varnish, and Lascaux UV Varnish. As you know, Golden is my favorite, but that doesn’t mean the other ones aren’t just as good.
Can you use Mod Podge on coffee mugs?
Make sure the surface of the mug is clean and dry. 3. Using a small paint brush, coat each cut-out with a light amount of Mod Podge and stick them to the mug wherever desired. The Mod Podge is clear once dry, so just give the mug some time and enjoy!
What is the best way to seal an acrylic painting?
How To Seal Acrylic Paint: Using Foam Brush and MinWax Polycrylic Protective Finish

Do Sharpie mugs wash off?
I can tell you from experience that a regular Sharpie, baked or unbaked, will just wash right off the mug. You HAVE TO use an oil-based paint Sharpie. This will help make your design permanent. After you’ve designed the mug in oil-based Sharpie, you’ll need to let the design dry for at least 24 hours.
