Applied on glass and crystal, the transparency of Vitrea 160 colours allows you to take full advantage of the way light plays off the surface. However, Vitrea 160 can be applied on other thermostable surfaces which can withstand a temperature of 160C (325F).
Before painting with Vitrea 160, simply decrease with alcohol or soapy water. Allow to air dry for 24 hours, then bake in an ordinary domestic oven. Place the decorated object in a cold oven. Once the temperature has reached 160C (325F), allow to bake for 40 minutes. After baking, colours are dishwasher safe and resistant to detergents and common solvents.
Pebeo Vitrea 160 is a waterbased, non-toxic paint developed to mimic the look of stained glass, blown glass and fused glass without the dangers of working with those materials. All you need to make the paint permanent is a household oven. This colorful glass paint is offered in 20 transparent colors and 10 frosted colors. Watch this demo showing various techniques using Pebeo Vitrea paint and dimensional outliners.
“Brilliant shop! Wonderful, prompt and attentive service and an excellent array of products (particularly given the size of the space). I usually order online and collect in store (another excellent service) to save the risk of parking my bike outside but always enjoy a wander when I’m in town. Highly recommended!”

“I ordered 3 pads of watercolour paper and when it arrived I was amazed at the way it was packed. Bubble wrap, cardboard wrap then brown paper. As a result the paper arrived in perfect condition. Well done.”
– Graham
“So nice to have a shop not in a mall or a big impersonal space with knowledgeable helpful staff-full of all the art/craft supplies one could possibly want.”
– Halima
“I’ve only found this wonderful shop recently. I have been coming into this shop regularly since as I’m doing a few craft projects at the moment. The staff are absolutely lovely and have helped me anytime I needed assistance — even with recommendations!”
– Chantelle
“The staff were very helpful and patient and helped me get everything I needed to start traditional inking/inkwash art, which is not that common (but they had the supplies regardless). Coming from a digital background, I had very little idea about what I needed but they were very patient and kind in helping me pick out each piece of equipment.”
