Hi all
Been looking for a white Tupperware coffee cup and finally found a white one. I had to buy the whole set of 4. Might paint one or two. What paint does anyone suggest that's safe for food.
Thanks

Hi propmaniac, are you looking to only paint the outside of the cup or also the inside. This may have an impact on what paints you could use.

I have three so far. Need to find a good permanent way to get the logo on there…

Silk screen?

Are you offering, Adam?

I also have some red ones I had to buy in the lot that I have for sale currently, but I could pull the ad and experiement with those...

I was thinking some light blue ones with a white logo too...

When I was making guitars, our logo was applied with a custom dry-transfer sheet. I wonder if anyone makes custom dry transfer any longer... but they would need to be sealed, or they will scratch off.

I also found a few of the white cups which I intend for actual use. I'm getting dishwasher safe stickers made; the only disadvantage is their material may be a bit thicker than screen accurate.

Ooooooh! Have you thought about offering those stickers in your store?
I don't reckon you'd sell many, but it'd be cool nonetheless (and I'd buy a couple).

I used a white original tupperware cup. I used waterslide decals for the wings emblem

I wonder if a satin crystal clear over the waterslide (and cup) would provide durability...

I had compatibility issues with water slid and clear coats over the top, so there would need to be some testing done, but it looks great.

I have some decal softener, for models, that helps with conformity. The decal would follow every bump in the surface perfectly...

I'll likely post the remainder after the original orders are sent.

Looks great! Curious, do these mugs do well with coffee?

They were made for coffee, but the white ones do tend to get stained after a while.
