Hopie Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Does anyone use candle paint? I'd like to know which ones to buy before I waste money on the wrong ones. Can you burn them safely? What about the metallics paint? Ever use that stuff? Thanks in advance for sharing your knowledge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pam W Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 Ya know, I totally passed on the painted candles.......wasn't worth my time or expense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopie Posted June 26, 2018 Author Share Posted June 26, 2018 I was thinking along the line of the paint pens...not a paintbrush. I'm not very artistic in that sense. There are some on Amazon, but I don't know if you could burn them safely if they're painted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donita Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 I sprayed a clear non glossy paint where I wanted my acrylic paint to stick. Worked great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t tried it myself, but I’ve read that you can put just a drop or two of Dawn dish soap in your everyday acrylic craft paint and it will work just like the store bought wax paints. Might be worth a try! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barbaranj Posted June 26, 2018 Share Posted June 26, 2018 This is supposed to mix with acrylic paint to help stick to waxy surfaces....and cheap enough! https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000YQI0ZM/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_2?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hopie Posted June 27, 2018 Author Share Posted June 27, 2018 Thanks! I wanted the paint just for dabs of colors if I find a good mold company...it would only be for things like eyeballs, snow on a Christmas tree...stuff like that. I totally lack artistic talent to actually "paint" them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
