Thanks! The biggest take away for me is how concentrated the small cans are. Now I won’t hesitate to purchase them through Amazon. I’m a big fan of your channel. Thanks again.

Thank you so much! I repair neon beer signs which are dyed. The glass used is white and then dipped in a very expensive liquid to look like more expensive glass. The Tamiya red is almost a perfect match for ruby red and it looks like the Tamiya yellow will match the yellow (look at a Corona sign.) The paint has saved me hundreds of dollars. Thanks for showing the finished product. That was what I was looking for!

What a super helpful video. I've never thought of spraying glass until I started watching your channel and your charming, educational videos. When I crack my glass, I come up with lots of chards and I make sure I get them small like the cracked glass you can buy. I have some really wonderful home-cracked clear glass. I thought of giving it all a day-long tumble to make it less "edgy" but haven't done it. But now I'm thinking of also spraying the glass per your different videos. You've given me so many ideas. After all that, still have not completed my Swatch watch table because I have been chicken to work with resin. I have a bit of a fear about resin and haven't tried it. Thank you for all your ideas. I've completely revamped my work with glass at the moment thanks to your inspiration.

Fantastic video. Really covera a lot of products, what works, how muktiple colors look when you're done.

I have another art project I want to dive into and this really helps for setting expectations. Thanks!!!

[OldSchoolPrepper]

this video is exactly what I needed for my project, thank you for doing this and for such great detail.

I found this video trying to find the canary yellow from Krylon. It's out of production, so the prices are unreasonable. Glad to find an alternative, thank you!

[stupidweasels]

Awesome- I'm working on a scale model which requires some different coloured translucent elements and it was great to see the comparison across different types and colours. Thanks for testing em all so I didn't have to!

[PenRippyJr]

absolutely perfectly well done video. i dont do arts and crafts but i work in the garage a lot and needed this info. thank you!

[chanalowenthal]

So important to know. I love the ‘color cards’! Thanks so much

[TheRealAmythyst]

I thought I was the only one who has been searching and scouring because I happen to see a short and somebody was using spray paint and I was like I didn't know they made translucent spray paint for glass where have you been all my life I don't even know what I want to make with you but I know I can make it now.

Definitely a new subscriber and I like the video thank you

I just discovered your site, and WoW you are awesome! I learned so much from you!

If I might make a suggestion, using the lacquer type of Tamiya paint instead of the ones for Polycarbonate would make for a better result as they're made for a high gloss finish on plastics and don't "etch" themselves into the plastic or resin, giving a really nice look! The PC sprays are made specifically for remote control car bodies, which are made of Polycarbonate. I've got a lot of experience with these sorts of paints since I'm a model kit builder, and these are for model kits after all. By the way, the proper pronunciation for Tamiya is 'Ta-mee-ya' and not 'Ta-may-ya', as it's a Japanese brand. ^-^

[katsiamapoisoning]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I've been noodling a problem regarding front door glass and this is food for thought.

[getprobed]

its good to see the tamiya translucent blue looks better than the krylon. you may be able to find these tamiya paints at rc car hobby shops. i'm going to check a couple this weekend.

[MaryjoPonce-zb]

Been racking my brain with research. Thank you for info!

[SicsemperevelloMortemtyr-byhj]

Amazing info! Thanks! Made the choice easier!

[joeaebersold]

Awesome video...The reason they are flat is because the Tamiya is used for RC bodies lexan etc...So you would spray that on the inside an wet paint is what you

Have you tried Pebeo Vitrail Stained Glass Effect Glass Paint (45-Milliliter Bottle). I have bought two colors and like the color and the translucent look. Not sure how it will work with the resin though, so wondered if you had used it. The first attempt, I actually painted the color on with a brush. Then I put the glass in a plastic cup and poured a few drops and then shook the color on the glass. I liked the variation in the color. Then I put it on waxed paper to dry, had to turn it a few times. It looked good. Now just wondering if it works over time with the resin. Thanks.
