My Easy Peasy Acrylic Pour Method

Learn how to create a template on one plastic cup so that you can easily duplicate it over and over! No need to weigh anything or feel like its a science project (unless you like science projects then I can’t help you haha).

Ingredient List:

  • Floetrol

  • 3 in 1 motor oil (liquid silicone)

  • Clear plastic cups (8 per person)

  • Clear plastic shot cup (1 per person)

  • Permanent marker

  • Painters tape

  • 4 or more acrylic craft paint bottles

  • 11x14 canvas (or whatever surface you choose)

  • Painters pan or a sturdy box with a puppy pad inside to catch overflow paint

  • Gloves

  • Water

  • Mixing sticks (popsicle sticks)

Once its dried (24 hours) coat with poly or another gloss. You can buy water based polyurethane spray at hardware stores :-)

Recipe:

2 parts Floetrol

1 part paint

1 part water

5-10 drops motor oil
