Epoxy Free Glitter Pen Tutorial | Papermate Inkjoy Gel Pen

This step by step glitter pen tutorial will show you how I glitter my inkjoy Gel Pens without epoxy. I use CrystaLac Brite Tone to glitter and seal the pens! This tutorial will show you exactly how easy this process is!

This pen does have a rubbery coating on it. Since no paint is designed to adhere to rubber, these may not last very long. Keep that in mind before you decide to sell!

I have a question about your very first comment in the video, stating to "test the pens as they may not last long due to the rubber coating", before I spend a lot of money on the supplies, what exactly do you mean, will they last and if so, how long? Thanks!! 😀

[Carterkid]

I love that you did not have to put it on the turner! Thank you for this great tutorial.

[debrarighter]

Can you just use brute tone to put the glitter on or do you recommend getting the glitter glue?

[NurseM-qu]

Instead of using brite tone, can you use expoxy resin to give the pen that extra shine?

[theresabennett]

I have a question unrelated to this video but not really if u do glitter rolling trays can u do this on possess on them there the metal ones 🤔

[blakelyn]

I love these, what type of printer do you have to make your names?

[jessicalugo]

This is such a great video! I super appreciate that you took your time for us. I can’t wait to begin.

[ruthie]

This is great! I love the fact that the ads are gone and the time stamps are available. I have a bunch of pens drying on knitting needles and chopsticks at the moment, wish me luck!!

[Monica-xqev]

Can I use acrylic paint instead of universal white? I don't have the budget for that right now.

[thekayway]

You're a life saver, I had forgot how to re assemble them! Thank you so much!

[DarkAngel]

I was so excited for this tutorial! This pens are all over my Facebook from the numerous groups I'm in and I definitely want to try my hand at them. Definitely going to me taking the plunge soon into Crystalac ❤❤❤

After adding decal and then brite tone .... how do you know your done? Will you not really feel the decal anymore?

[sherriecantu]

What other pen brands are good since the rubber may be iffy? I like to write with Pentel RSVP and zebra pens.

[cecilias]

I just came across this video. I'm wanting to try my hand at making these pens. What's your best advice for a beginner?

[aramoynnieves]

Saludos q utilizas para q quede brillante como si fuera resina?😢

[cutedevil]

What's brand and where I can get the base color paint?

[jezzelleomamos]

Can i use poster paint rather than spray paint?

[zigma]

can this method work for bling diamond pens too?

[mah_]

This is so awesome and helpful!!! Do you sell these? How do the hold up? I love this bc I don’t have to messed with epoxy or anything like that. Edit: can I use mod podge instead of brite glue or can I do both? But use mod podge as a final base covering?

[coachdonna]

Hi what paint did you use? I like this better than using the spray?
