Painting Stained Glass WITHOUT a Kiln :: How I Paint Stained Glass using Pebeo Vitrea 160

Holy MOLEY thank you so much for 10,000 subscribers! I can't believe so many people want to listen to me ramble on about stained glass and stained glass accessories!

Today we touch on the question I get asked more than any other question – what kind of paint do I use?

Hi! 👋
I love Blick, too! I get soooo much there.
Quick tip for painting strips, lines, etc. 🤔After you've measured out where you want the lines, strips, stripes, etc., apply strips of tape (low tack is best) to put where the glass will NOT be painted on. After you've painted and it's dried, slowly and carefully peal off the tape. Ta-da! No more safety pin blues!
Here's some help on the brush 🖌
Princeton has some really good brushes. There is a brush brand called Robert Simmons and Simply Simmons. They are synthetic and made VERY WELL for their price...$3.43 per brush. This is Blick prices. Some of the groups of brushes under the Simmons name are discontinuing. Some are not and the brushes you use (the liners and the rounds) are not.
I like my brushes a little stiffer than the natural Kolinsky-haired brushes, so I stick with synthetic hairs. But, I don't want to paint with broom sticks so stay away from hog bristles and the house painting brushes (bristles too big for what you're doing anyway). Synthetic hairs also mean that no animal had to die for us to paint....win-win 😃!!!
The liner brushes are the brushes that are long-haired. Of the 3 brushes you showed together you had 2 liners and a round brush. The round brush looked to be a size 2 or thereabouts? When painting details try rounds from 0/10 up to 3. Depending how large and what, I find 0/3, 0/2, 0/1, 0, 1 and 2 the most helpful.
Liners are great for exactly what their for lining🙂
Simply Simmons also has a line of "XF" eXtra Firm. These are still synthetic and soft, but give more support. I am a silk painter and, depending on the silk, I like a little more a "cross your heart bra with an underwire" vs a "string bikini top" with very little material😉, lol!
Anyway, hope that helped!
God Bless!

This is just the video I needed I have been starting with Pebeo 160 and have been struggling with bad brushes. I also had no idea they had gold and iridescent!

You have a big talent. Your works on glass are beautiful 🥰

[tomekstrike]

really cool paint brush collection, also your audio is super clear, thanks for taking the time and sharing your hobby tools and supplies. great video !

Thank you so much making these videos Rachel, super helpful for someone learning this craft! A slightly unrelated question: I've been having issue with using black patina on wire accents. I see the accents in your alien piece at the end of the video look so nice and they took the patina well! Do you use pre-tinned copper wire for the accents, or tin the wire yourself? I'm hoping I just got a bad batch of pre-tinned wire. I thought maybe I need to buy wire that's already colored black, but I've read reviews about the solder not sticking because of anti-tarnish coatings and such. Can't seem to find an answer on this anywhere and would appreciate your thoughts. 😊

As far as for the paint drying out, you can use a wet palette to keep the custom mixed paint longer. This was extremely useful for painting miniatures for tabletop games.

Do you know if a countertop convection oven works as well as a traditional kitchen model? I'd like to use something simple in my garage. Love your videos! Thanks so much!

[BirchGlass]

Awesome video as always lovely!!!! 😍😍😍

Thank you for your presentation. I have used the transparant orange Pebeo Vitrea 160 on glass that is in my shower wall. I wasn't able to put it in the oven of course as I painted the glass which was already in the shower. What would you suggest I use to paint over my painted glass now to protect it? As it's in a shower it will frequently get wet and also will need cleaning to remove soapy water.

[elizabethsomoza]

Can I use this paint for exterior projects? 🤔

[bambooinchina]

Hi, thank for your great advice. Does this glass paint dry looking as part of the glass when baked? Or does the paint sit on top of the glass like other glass paints? Thanks

[christinekurz]

is it possible to set this in a kiln? i don’t have an oven. ☹️

[SpencerDavis]

Great video! I saw the thinner in the lineup. Is the thinner needed or can you paint without it?
