- Find a spot outdoors and cover nearby items with drop cloths to protect them from spray mist.
- Clean the inside and outside of the glass, using glass cleaner and a lint free cloth.
- Tape the outside edges of the object and anywhere on the inside that you do not want painted. You can also cover the outside of the vase/jar with paper. Secure with painter’s tape to prevent overspray.
- Hold the Rust-Oleum® Specialty Mirror Effect can 20-30 cm from the surface. Press the spray button and begin covering the reverse side of the glass in a steady back-and-forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke.
- Apply 3 or more light coats at a moderate speed. For best results, apply multiple light coats versus one heavy coat.
- Let dry for 1 hour before displaying your work of art.
