Select Kits Vitrail Cerne Relief Dimensional Paint — Black 2-Pack 20ml, Fine Tip & Air-Dry Raised Outliner

Vitrail Cerne Relief Dimensional Paint in black is a thick, paste-like outliner for creating raised, glossy outlines on glass, ceramic, metal, canvas and mixed-media surfaces.

This two-tube set from Select Kits pairs two 20 ml black Cerne Relief applicator tubes with an exclusive e-book, giving makers a reliable tool for faux stained-glass effects, cloisonné-style outlines, and textured accent lines. The formula is designed to hold shape as it air-dries, letting you build crisp barriers before filling with colour or leave the raised black lines as a finished detail. The fine nozzle supports precise work, and a short surface-dry time makes it easy to layer after about thirty minutes.

How does this outliner behave on glass and porcelain?

The Cerne Relief paint forms a stable raised ridge that resists flowing into adjacent colour fields, making it ideal for stained-glass and porcelain-style outlining. It bonds well to smooth, non-porous surfaces and keeps a glossy finish once dry.

• Thick, paste-like viscosity for clear raised lines
• Fine applicator tip for detailed control
• Air-dries to a hard, shiny edge — wait ~30 minutes before filling
• Compatible with glass paints like Vitrea 160 and Porcelaine 150

Can I use this on canvas, wood, and metal?

Yes — the black relief paint is versatile across porous and non-porous supports. On absorbent materials such as canvas and wood it keeps dimensional texture; on metal and mirrors it adheres and produces a high-contrast outline.

• Works on canvas, wood, metal, ceramic, and existing painted surfaces
• Creates tactile accents and raised borders for mixed-media pieces
• Use over acrylics after initial cure time for layered effects
• Good for model detailing, decorative kitchen projects, and ornamentation

What practical tips help get the best results?

Prep and steady hands are key: clean surfaces, plan your lines, and apply gentle, consistent squeeze pressure. Test nozzle flow on scrap material and practice curved lines before committing to final pieces.

• Clean and degrease glass/porcelain for best adhesion
• Use light, continuous pressure; avoid stopping mid-stroke to prevent blobs
• Allow roughly 30 minutes surface drying before touching or filling with colour
• Cap tubes after use to prevent clogging of fine tips

How do I combine it with other paints and techniques?

Use the black relief as a barrier for glass paints or as a decorative raised line over acrylics and gouache. It pairs well with glass-specific paints (Vitrea 160), porcelain paints (Porcelaine 150), and conventional craft paints for mixed-media approaches.

• Create faux stained-glass panels by outlining cells, then filling with transparent glass paint
• Add texture by layering multiple ridges or applying on top of textured paste
• Use as final accents on painted objects for a professional glossy boundary
• Combine with paint pens and brushes for complex detailing
