Water-based markers that permanently bond to glass and metal sound too good to be true, but Pebeo delivers exactly that. Vitrea 160 markers flow transparent color directly onto slick surfaces, wine glasses, ceramic tiles, metal ornaments, without primers or surface prep. The water-based formula stays workable long enough to blend and layer, then heat-sets into a dishwasher-safe finish after 40 minutes at 325°F in a standard oven.

Choose between glossy colors that catch and amplify light or frosted tones that diffuse it softly. Both formulations maintain transparency, allowing underlying surfaces to show through while adding rich color. The marker format provides control that brush application can't match on curved glass surfaces, from delicate linework on stemware to bold graphics on mirrors.

Baking transforms these markers from temporary decoration into permanent surface treatment. Once heat-set, decorated pieces withstand repeated washing without fading or peeling. Create custom glassware, personalize windows, embellish metal surfaces, the combination of easy application and genuine permanence makes functional art accessible without kiln equipment or specialized knowledge.
