Painting your bong can be a fun way to express your personality and make your bong unique.

If you want the most freedom to express your creativity, especially paint inside a bong, glass is the way to go.

Glass gives you a smooth surface to paint on and can let light through to make some breath-taking and radiant designs.

However, It's a bit overwhelming knowing where to start if you've never painted them before. You may be wondering what paint to go with.

What is a Bong?

A bong is a popular smoking device used to filter and cool smoke that comes from burning Cannabis flower.

Bongs come in all sorts of shapes, sizes, and materials, including glass, acrylic, ceramic and silicone.

Glass bongs, especially borosilicate glass bongs, are the most popular, offering a clean, pure taste and visually appealing design. However, they can be fragile and expensive.

What can I paint my the inside bong with?

Painting your bong is like giving it a whole new personality. You can go for a simple, solid color, or get wild with patterns, designs, and even trippy fades.

You'll want to use paints made specifically for glass that is waterproof and will adhere to glass.

Enamel and acrylic paints work great and are readily available. Plus there are many paint brushes available for painting on glass!

If you want to make your project essentially waterproof and scratch-resistant, we recommend a high gloss sealer or resin when your project is complete.

If possible, let the painted bong cure for a few days before using it. You can also bake it in the oven (if the paint instructions allow) to help set the paint.

1. Enamel Paints

Enamel paint can be used on glass and any other glossy or non-glossy surface.

They are perfect for adding words, shading, or intricate details to your fusible glass designs.

Though the Enamel paint can be left to air dry, for better durability we recommend curing it in the oven.

2. Acrylic Paints

Acrylic Paints are specially formulated to adhere to glass, plastic and glazed ceramics.

They are transparent and offer many creative design opportunities, including faux stained glass windows.

Use a base coat of gesso with top coats of acrylic paint for a totally opaque finished glass painting.

These paints can either be air-dried or heat-set depending on the manufacturer's direction.

Tips to paint on your glass bong

Glass bongs are like a blank canvas, ready for your masterpiece! Just remember, glass can be a bit delicate, so handle with care.

Before you start painting, make sure your bong is clean and dry. And after you're done, apply a sealant to protect your artwork and make sure it's safe to smoke from. A sealant will also add a glossy finish and make your colors pop!

Any type of paint you use without out baking it on like an enamel is going to most likely come off when you try to clean it with anything other than water. You can paint first and then bake it in the oven to permanently set the paint.

It is important to remember that paints can actually be hazardous to your health. Many paints may contain VOCs. Remember to get non-toxic paint!

Keep the paint away from the place where you load your weed, and the mouthpiece, and paint this with caution, inhaling paint fumes is verrrrry bad for you.
