Q&A for How to Dye Glass

Take a dry wax candle and gently rub the dry wax on the item. Blow dry it with a hair dryer until it's not very visible.

Yes you can, but you need a special formula. You should check with your eye doctor to see if they offer dyed glasses, so that you do not risk messing your glasses up if you do it incorrectly.

If you want to use it for drinking purposes, only paint the outer surface of the glass.

You could dye the inside of an oil lamp if you weren't planning to ever light the lamp. Otherwise, it would be unsafe since the paint or mod podge could catch fire.

If you heat it up again in a proper environment you can scrape off some of the color.

If you've got prescription lenses, I would not mess with them. If you want to experiment, though, get some cheap readers at the Dollar Store.

Sure! You could use either of the methods described in this article, although you wouldn't be able to dry the back-splash tile in the oven.

Not unless you use extremely diluted glass paint, and even then you'd probably lose some transparency. Mod Podge is likely too thick to keep the transparency intact, and would make it opaque.

Yes, it could work to paint small glass windows using either of these methods. If you're painting the exterior surface of a window, though, don't use the Mod Podge method, since the color would come off during the first rainstorm.

Yes, as long as you wait until after it dries. Acetone is not combustible; therefore, it will not hurt it. However, it may fade over time.
