can this be painted over? like with watercolors or glass stains? I'm trying to get transparent effect/nice wash of color.

I'm not sure, haven't tried it, but I'm guessing not. It's a very glossy finish.....not sure if anything will adhere to the gloss. But it's worth a try, if you can, on an inconspicuous or scrap material.

It will go over paint with no problem and you can work it into the details to make them "pop". However, I like it primarily for stained finishes. Another, and probably better technique with painted pieces is to use a tinted glaze -- you can better control the amount applied and wiped off, and you can use different colors (e.g., tea stain). Good luck.

Did you try the paint on the wine glasses yet? If so, do you just wash the glasses by hand & did the paint start to fade after several washes? Thanks, love your idea.

It's a smooth plastic surface, so it would not be very easy to paint. But I'm not a pro so I guess anything is possible.

I would say no. The side of the decal that sticks to the surface isn't the same color as the side that is showing. I just used mine on the wall, so I am not sure how you would do it on glass. I thought perhaps putting one of the same behind on the other side of glass, but then it would be backwards. perhaps you can figure something out. good luck!

To clarify my previous answer....I have put the color in a separate bowl and allowed it to dry out and then used it as a dry dust to add shimmer. Yo u can use it directly out the bottle but I usually dilute it and paint it on to change the entire surface.

yes! definitely. I'd suggest something like acrylic that isn't water soluble, just for longevity. But painting on it works like a charm.

you need enamel paint for glass then just hand wash it comes off easy I would not use out door paint on glass

you can paint over it with a different color or satin or gloss black the finnish on this paint is very flat but goes on easy they reccomend an appropiate drying time before painting over

Not sure about staining since I am careful regarding what comes into contact with the treated surface. My advice would be to remember that this is simply a type of paint. If something will stain or damage paint, odds are that it will also damage duplicolor shadow. Another option is to contact Dupli Color with your question.

This is not paint. It is pigment that you mix with a clear paint like "clear polycrylic". I tested the pigment mixed with minwax water based polycrylic protective finish 'clear satin' on wood, acrylic plastic, glossy photo paper, metal and a smooth pebble but I did not test on glass. If the clear paint you mix the pigment with works on glass then yes it will work on glass. The minwax that I used was meant to protect wood finishes but worked great on acrylic plastic and the other materials I tested on.

I used exterior paint only. But I'm sure it would spray stain. That would be thinner then paint. When I tested it with water it sprayed Nicly with water.

I would use a brush not spray. You could use whatever paint you wanted to achieve the finish you desire. However, it would not be easy to paint over the black without applying either several coats or a white primer so if you really don't want the black color I would think twice about purchasing the product. As black goes with pretty much everything and the island looks very nice in my kitchen if you do purchase it try the black finish for awhile before changing it.

There is a glossy finish (clear coat) but you could easily paint it. Use a basic primer first. A stain probably would not work.

I would call the manufacturer on this product, I applied it over a latex paint mural and as soon as the temperature changed, it clouded up and destroyed the mural. I lost a lot of time and money. It may do the same thing over Stain. Good luck.

A friend and i just did a project and where able to get a bright white. I am not sure if or how much the color you will be covering impact the final outcome. Ours was a fairly light shade of tan.One note on the tintable already being white. That is what we thought as well. Shot one of the bottles before we realized it was not covering with any real color. Added the paint per instructions and achieved a great white finish.
