Electronic Cigarette Accessories

Here is finally my video on making your own electronic cigarette accessories.

And here is part 2.

I wanted to add – I did finish off the pieces with the glaze that came with the paints. As they are drying their color appears to be getting more and more vibrant.

Oh, and when you use the surface conditioner, be sure to just leave it on and let it dry.

Painting My Electronic Cigarette

Written by admin on August 12, 2008 – 7:22 am -

I bought the paint, brushes and sponges.  I just need to find the nerve.  I’m going to paint my electronic cigarette!

After seeing a lovely layered job someone did, I figured it’s time.

I headed out to the Michael’s Arts and Crafts store a couple of days ago.  The paint selection was overwhelming.  I wanted to be sure to not only select some colors I liked, but needed to be careful to get the right kind of paint.

The instructions I obtained called for FolkArt Enamels Acrylic Metallic Paint for glass & ceramics.  While Michaels carries FolkArt, I was unable to find this particular blend.  Then there was the choice on metallic or not.

After a good hour or so bouncing around in the store, a declined sponge sword fight with my other half, bouncing from the do it yourself kits and model cars to the glass ware, I finally picked some stuff up.  I got the Delta glass paint which will need to cure for at least 10 days after applying.  I really couldn’t help myself, and I got a couple of sample kits.  One is iridecent, and the other is just plain.  I also got PermEnamel in the silver.  Now with so many colors, I don’t know where to begin.

I made sure to check something with NJOY first.  I wanted to make sure my warranty would be valid after painting my e-cig.  I am delighted to report it is!  If there are any problems as far as the battery dying or atomizer, NJOY will take your painted e-cig and replace it with a new one – just not painted.

I am charging up the batteries in my camera right now, and I’ll see if I can’t supply some pics or video when I start painting.  We will however have to wait some time for me to test the paint and see how it holds up after it has cured – so I don’t recommend anyone else do this just yet!  You can, but I can’t guarantee anything.

While I am at it, I have a cigarette case solution as well, and I can paint that to match.  I’m almost ready to go!
