How to paint glass

Glass can be one of the most difficult substrates to paint. Unless it is properly primed, top coats simply won’t adhere to it. Start the job right with Bulls Eye® 1-2-3.

Steps

1. Surface Preparation

Ensure the surface is free from any contaminants and anything that could interfere with adhesion then degrease overall with methylated spirit frequently changing the cloth. Remove all visible signs of organic growth and treat the areas with an efficient mould killer in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow to dry.

2. Priming

Prime overall with one full coat of Bulls Eye® 1-2-3 Primer Sealer in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow a minimum drying time of 1 hour in normal drying conditions.

3. Decoration

Decorate with two full coats of Perma-White® Interior Matt or Satin in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Allow a minimum drying time of two hours between coats.
