How to make a glitter tumbler

To personalize your stainless steel tumbler using glitter, you will need several items. You will need glitter, epoxy, gloves, a heat gun, and spray paint. You will need to start by spray painting your tumbler and allowing plenty of time for it to dry. You will start with your painted tumbler and place it on a cup turner. Apply the mixed epoxy resin to the spray-painted surface of the tumbler. This epoxy should be a thin layer to only serve as an adhesive for the glitter. You can then use the heat gun to even out any streaks in the epoxy. If there are streaks in the epoxy, these streaks will interfere with the design of the glitter.

Then, you can slowly shake the glitter onto the epoxy-covered tumbler. The spinning action of the turner will allow excess glitter to fall while evenly coating the tumbler in glitter. Gently tap the arm of the cup turner to remove loose glitter from the tumbler. For complete coverage, you can repeat the process of pouring glitter and tapping the turner to remove excess glitter. Allow the tumbler to continue spinning on the cup turner for two hours. Use a gloved hand to smooth out the glitter and epoxy on the bottom of the tumbler to ensure your tumbler has an even and flat bottom.

You can then prepare another epoxy mixture to pour onto the glittered tumbler. Evenly coat the tumbler with the epoxy mixture using a gloved hand or brush. Now, you can use the heat gun to even out the epoxy and allow any bubbles to come to the surface. Your tumbler will need to spin for four to six hours and then air dry for another six hours. You can also epoxy your stainless steel tumbler without glitter.
