After doing some searching, I know there has been some discussion about spray painting bottles, but none of the threads I've found have had results from anyone. I would really like to try it but was hoping I could find some more information on it. Has anyone done this successfully? Or unsucessfully?
Zymurgrafi and gratus fermentatio seemed like the two most interested parties a few years back so maybe they could comment? Pictures would be very welcome.
A few notes from reading the other threads:
- Bottles would need to be roughed up with sandpaper in order to help the paint stick
- The lip of the bottle and up would need to be masked so they wouldn't be painted
- There's a recommendation to coat the final layer with a sealer in case the paint began to chip, so you didn't get paint chips in your beer
I focus on spray painting, but if anyone has gotten really artistic and even tried painting by hand, I would be interested in that too.
Thanks!
Edit: I'm an idiot. Would a mod be nice enough to move this to Label Display & Discussion? Sorry...
