My mind is racing with all the ways that I could use these bottles, pinning this one. Home Appliances. Air Conditioners.

It will also reduce the likelihood of the paint flaking off. Your goal is to create a slightly rough surface that will better hold paint, but not scratch the surface up completely.
Use grit sandpaper to prepare plastic for paint. Primer can help prepare the surface for painting, but is not always necessarily with plastics. Paint your laptop cover using spray paint.
Spray paints for plastics are available in a variety of colors at most craft stores. Use the area you have set up previously. Again, be sure that it is well ventilated and away from any open flame.
Spray evenly and avoid building up too much paint in any one area. This will help your paint job from appearing blotchy and uneven. Apply two to three coats, letting the cover dry in between coats. Using several coats will help ensure complete coverage. Method 3. Create your design. Be creative with your design, but keep in mind that you will be traveling with your laptop. Therefore, you do not want it to become too bulky or to include items that will easily fall off and be left behind.
You can use paint, stickers, photos, glitter, sequins, rhinestones, ribbons or fabric to get a laptop cover that is totally unique. Decide if you want to keep the base color the same.
Use a piece of paper to sketch out your design. Gather your materials and prepare a work space. After you have decided on a design, make sure that you have everything you need. Some specialized decals and stickers can be purchased directly either in stores or online.
You can explore this option too. Otherwise, most common materials can be purchased at any craft store. Lay down newspaper or an old tablecloth to work on to ensure you keep your workspace clean. Arrange anything that will be stuck on your laptop on the cover. This way, you can confirm that you know where everything will go.
Move everything around until you are happy with it. Try several different options before settling on one. After you glue things down it is very difficult, if not impossible, to remove them again without damaging the cover.
Stick everything to the cover. Stickers can simply be stuck onto the cover. However, much of your design will require glue to permanently attach. Choose a glue that is appropriate for your cover. If you are using a hard plastic cover, use an epoxy. Epoxies work best when gluing to plastic. Varnish your laptop cover. This will help stop any part of the design from falling off and give a nice finish. Once again, make sure the solvent won't damage the material your cover is made from.
If you have painted your laptop cover, use a varnish designed for acrylic paint. Varnish is available in liquid and spray forms. For example a sew on pear that is 18mm x Point back rhinestones, or chatons, come in very small sizes. The sizing starts with PP and goes up to SS.
