Hello, I am interested in painting wit the Folk Art Enamels. I have some old windows and I want to paint them and sell them. I have never used this paint before. I would like to know if there is anything I should know. I have been painting with acryllics for over 15 years. ALso if anyone knows how much I should sell the windows for after they are painted would be a big help as well. Thanks |

| I also bought the special brushes they require. I was wondering if I have to use them only or if I could use the regular brushes. Any advice would be very helpful to me. |

Hi, I don't know much about enamels on glass, although I wouldn't mind trying it either, but here is a site I found that might help. http://www.carolinapaints.com/articles/200406-01WindowPainting.html Hope this helps, good luck |

| Thanks a bunch! I never though of painting backwards. I don't think I could do that yet. And I never though about painting on the inside or outside of the window. I think I will stick with the outside for now until I get more familiar. Thanks again. |
