FAQ’s
What do I clean glass with?
Only use isopropyl rubbing alcohol or denatured alcohol with clean paper towels when cleaning glass. If you your glass is really dirty, first clean the glass with a water hose and a spray de-greaser and sponge.
How many coats do I apply?
Only 1 light coat is recommended. 1 light coat gives the most authentic etched glass look. More coats can be added if needed.

After you have applied your design stencil and applied the paint, you must wait at least 10-24 hours before you remove the stencil. The paint should be dry before you remove the stencil.
How do I totally remove Glass Etching Paint from glass?
(Glassprimer™ glass paint can only be removed up to 1 week after paint is applied) To remove or “strip” glassprimer™ glass paint from the glass surface, lay the glass flat with the painted surface facing up, pour or spray conventional polyurethane paint stripper all over the painted glass surface and let stand for about 15 minutes. After 15 minutes you will notice the paint actually will start jumping off of the glass surface! wash the paint off with water (pressure water hose works well) and repeat if necessary. After most paint is removed, clean the glass surface with a de-greaser and sponge. Take single edge razor blades and remove the excess glass paint from the glass surface if necessary. Now the glass can be re-cleaned with rubbing alcohol and re-painted with Glassprimer™ Glass Etching Paint.
