Some Safety Measures to be Observed

A good practice while putting stickers on, is to make sure they are no placed on important areas like the bowl, mouthpiece or the vent holes. Don’t put stickers on such areas, instead try the neck and the base of the bong, to avoid cover areas near the hole while putting a decoration on it.

2. Paint It with Glass-Friendly Paints

Understand Your Choices of Paint

A glass safe paint will convert the plain and dull bong into one that is user specific. Always remember to paint with paints which are meant for glass, and not any ordinary paint as it will become flaked or damaged due to moisture in the future.

Considerations While Painting

Depending on how you want your bong to look like, choose geometric, floral or mandala paintings and try more abstract spaced art if you want. If you do not wish to remove the painting, look for paint for glass etching and also acrylic paints that will become water resilient after they dry up. This subsequently makes your painting resilient to wear and hence allows cleaning of the bong as well as everyday use without the fear of losing design.
