Any decorating tips?

[Demoness]

Hey everybody! I just want to say thanks to all who have replied to my earlier posts and that I have found some great info!

Now- for the question- I must admit I havent really browsed for decorating tips yet- so I thought I would ask here- How and what do you guys use to decorate ur ecigs? I have a 510manual that is black and would really like to make it my own. Do you use plain old stickers you like or are there sites where you can buy premade sticker designs? Any suggestion would be great!

Thanks and Happy vaping!

There are some e-cigarette skins on the web as well as cartomizer skins. I think I also saw some e-cigarette decals somewhere. Just search Google for them. And a place called Vapography has some stuff (carto skins and charms and stuff).

I watched a review video by some woman (sorry no idea who) and it appeared she had painted her black(?) battery with little flowers or something. Just a guess but I think the most durable paint would be something like Testors Enamels (the kind used for models). I just don't know how it might interact with whatever the battery is already coated with to be black.

Vapography.com has a nice sale going on right now. I've used the crystal bands and diamond wraps from there and they're very durable. I have some of the carto skins too but I haven't used them yet.

I use nail stickers and then clear nail polish to seal it. I recently took nail polish remover and cleaned one off, then used my fingernails to remove the stickers. Then it was back to base color and re-did it in another style and it didn't do anything to the original paint.

I found the temporary tattoos at walmart and used those (making sure to keep the damp rag from any openings) and then covered it with clear nail topcoat. Ive also used the nail polish with glitter over the top of my cig tattoo =)

Thanks to MissNomad, I was ready to decorate my ecigs before they were even delivered. LOL



I used nail stickers, clear polish, and elastic hair bands. All purchased from the $1 store.

I am DEFINITELY going to make my new 510 glittery. I just hope I can do it without having glitter come off all the time. Perhaps a spray adhesive, then glitter, then clear nail lacquer coat. Great thread!

I look at my eGo as an accessory, so give it some style and have some fun.

Oh WOW- No I hadn't found those yet! Just watched them! Those vids are great!

AWWWW- I took the led cover off of my 510 to take a look at it and the freakin led is literally glued to the cap! WTF?? Won't be buying batteries from that place anymore

 

[SmokingBullet]

Here's something to think about before you decorate your batteries. Measure or eye ball where your battery sits in your charger or PCC if you're going to use any thicker stickers, rhinestones, etc. If you glue or apply them too high or too low you may not be able to charge your battery because your decorations get in the way.

I painted one of my batteries (black matte) with a real pretty pearly purple nail polish. It looks pretty cool (to me). I had tried a different color at first - just a few strokes down one side - and didn't like how it looked so I used nail polish remover to take it off.

Geez, now I'm gonna have to add nail polish, stickers and temp tattoos to my e-cig stash. I need a bigger box!

Hehe, what could be better than having a handy husband? One that's handy AND reads the same forums I do!

As for more nail polish, stickers and temp tattoos - I guess you and I are going to Wally World tomorrow, huh? *hint hint*
