How it is done:

  • To ensure the porcelain is free of dust and grease, carefully clean it with dish soap or scouring cream, Marabu Cleaner & Thinner, or rubbing alcohol. Thoroughly rinse off any remaining cleaner with clean water before painting.
  • Carefully cover the porcelain with strips of masking tape. Avoid touching the areas to be painted with your hands or fingers. Wear gloves if necessary.
  • Before use, stir the paint thoroughly with a wooden stick. Do not shake the container, as this will cause air bubbles to form. Use a brush to paint the surfaces.
  • Leave everything to dry thoroughly, then remove the tape. The paint will be touch-dry after 30 minutes and dishwasher-safe after three days (without baking). We recommend washing painted dishes in the glass cycle at a maximum temperature of 50 °C.
