Liquitex makes a series of professional paints specifically formulated for specialty decorative applications. Liquitex Professional Glossies offer brilliant and highly stable color on glass tile and other impermeable surfaces. Liquitex professional Glossies are water-based acrylic enamels, formulated for use on slick, non-porous materials such as glass, tile, ceramics, stoneware, china, enamelware, primed metal, wood, and other non-oily surfaces. They dry to a high gloss finish and are non-toxic. Colors are lightfast. They mix beautifully to achieve any hue, and dry to a glossy, enamel-like finish. Thin them with no more than 25% water. Glossies can be air-dried or heat-set. To heat-set, bake pieces at 325°F (162°C) for 30-40 minutes in a kitchen oven, for a hard, ceramic-like finish. Allow the piece to warm up and cool down gradually with the oven. Glossies have a thicker consistency than that of other decorative paints. For best results, use a soft natural-fiber brush, such as a red sable watercolor brush, or a soft synthetic-fiber brush, such as a golden taklon detailer.
