In this tutorial I make 3 AWESOME blacklight reactive phone cases with water marble nail polish They look super cool You can do this with any phone case Android Apple Samsung Galaxy S7 iphone 7 etc This is mostly used for nail art but I thought I d try something new Also I was having way too much fun making cool patterns in the water with nail polish haha I hope you guys like it How to make a unique water marble phone case What you need You ll need a bowl of water toothpicks Qtips paper towels nail polish remover and nail polish But be careful not all nail polish works for this technique The brands I used were Sally Hansen China Glaze Ice and Salon Perfect You need to have nail polish that spreads on top of the water I would suggest bringing a cup of water to the store so you can test out the polishes to make sure they work before you buy them You ll also need spray paint White and clear I used Rustoleum And of course you need a phone case It can be any color it doesn t matter I bought mine for 5 Step 1 First you need to spray paint the case white This is so that the colors show up and so that the nail polish sticks to the phone case This is what happens if you don t spray paint it first Once you re done painting set it aside to let dry While it s drying you can get the rest of your stuff ready Fill a bowl with room temperate water Make sure it s big enough to fit your phone case Have toothpicks Qtips and nail polish remover next to the bowl Get out all the colors of nail polish you want to use and unscrew the caps of all of them Do this because you need to be able to use them quickly Step 2 Take a nail polish brush and get a good amount of nail polish on it then put a drop onto the water It should spread out into a big circle Then quickly do it again with the rest of the colors you want to use You have to be fast because the nail polish will dry Don t do more than about 6 colors at once Take a toothpick and drag it though the colors to make a design There are many different ways you can do this Experiment and see what you think looks cool If you mess up or you don t like how it turned out that s fine Just use a Qtip or a piece of paper to clear away all of the nail polish and then you can start over Once you have a design you like continue dropping nail polish and making designs until you have filled up a big enough area to cover the whole phone case It needs to be bigger than the case so that there is enough to cover the sides too Step 3 When you ve made a big enough area you can dip the phone case Make sure it has been at least 30 minutes since you spray painted the case You want to make sure that the paint isn t wet but it s ok if it s a little sticky Try to touch the part you painted as little as possible Carefully drop the case onto your design Then push it all the way down so that the design covers the sides of the case Now use a Qtip to clean up as much excess nail polish as you can Make sure the edges of the design stick to the case Then use 2 Qtips to carefully get the phone case out of the water Try not to touch the design Dip a Qtip into nail polish remover then use it to clean up the edges Set down the case and let it dry Step 4 Once there is no more water on it spray paint a layer of clear on top so that the nail polish will stay on Let it dry overnight and then its finished About My Channel I m a 3D printing pen expert I love making creative 3D pen creations as well as reviewing the latest 3D printing products I make videos on 3D pens printing technology hair dye Chalk board cars Spray Paint Art How to DIY Reviews and MORE Check back on Saturday for my next video Also if you like my videos please SHARE them FOLLOW ME MUSIC I USED IN THIS VIDEO Tobu Infectious NCS Release Follow Tobu Music Redhead by JahzzarAvailable on the Free Music Archive freemusicarchive org
