MERCURY GLASS TABLE TUTORIAL

What you’ll need:

• Latex Gloves
• A glass surface (Table/Vase etc)
• Paper Towel
• Water
• Rubbing Alcohol
• Spray Bottle
• Rust-Oleum Mercury Glass Paint

After:

Before:

Step 1: Clean your surface. I flipped my glass table top upside down and wiped down the glass before applying the spray paint.

Step 2: Coat your glass with Rust-Oleum Mirror Effect.

Step 3: Let Dry (In the image below you can see where there are still wet spots. Once the splotches have cleared you can move onto the next step).

Step 4: Spritz your mixture of 1/2 water 1/2 rubbing alcohol all over your glass.

Step 5: Use paper towel to blot up what you have just sprayed. You can use your nails and a variation of pressure to create a different look.

Step 6: Repeat until you get the desired look you’re going for.

As opposed to being see through you can tell that the table now has a mirrored finish. I also tried this technique on vases. I think any mantel would look FANTASTIC covered in them.

I really hope you get to try this out. It’s easy, it’s fun and it looks great.

Until next time,
