hey if you painted your CLYW Canvas I’m planning to build a photo gallery, so if you want to send over a photo I’ll include yours.

So Sniffy, what kind of paint are you using?

Golden liquid and also their self leveling gel. Adds 1/2 gram to each side, though I did several layers and accepted the extra weight was a condition of the look I wanted.

The golden liquids themselves don’t add the weight. So if you wanted to paint directly I wouldn’t be concerned about using them.

I only painted the inner cup though. I’m sure the paint wouldn’t grind well or hold up to string friction.

Do all of the canvases have only certain parts you can paint, eg; all but the rims? or can you paint the whole thing? Also, can an already painted canvas be stripped and repainted? Thanks

Well, I think ry the intention is only to paint the flat area of the cup.

If the paint can be removed later would depend on the paint type.

I personally wouldn’t paint anything but the inside of the cup being it could mess with the original feel of the finish.
