How to Prime Glass for Painting

Video Transcript

"JASON PAINTER: Hi. I'm Jason and today, we're painting on glass. We just washed our glass it's dry and we wanna--remember, we put a black dot on the back where we can touch because we washed the front surface. We're going to apply the primer and that--we want the surface to stay clean so the primer will stick. If the primer doesn't stick, the paint doesn't stick. So make sure you grab from the back and always be mindful of your dot. The primer is alcohol based so it dries really fast and it's hard to see. That's another good reason for the dot. With the primer, I put it directly into my brush. It wastes a lot of it and you don't--it's really hard to find this stuff in big quantities. So I put it right on my brush, really soak it in there really good and we're going to be mindful that we need to put this back in, opposite of our dot and there we go. We're just going to go over it and it's really runny, so we'd just go really fast and it's already drying. So we'll let it dry and then we can paint."
