This project looks like it has a good tutorial.
There are also paint stains: pebeo vitrea 160 glass paint (available on amazon).

This also is dishwasher safe and can be baked. And finally when you really get into painting glass, there are paints that are painted on glass that are then fired in a kiln. This paint will never come off!!! These paints are sold at stained glass stores and online. I hope I answered your question well. Good luck!
Painting Glasses With Glass Paint
At least three types of paint may be used on glass: acrylic enamel, acrylics marked as suitable for tile or glass, and specially formulated solvent-based paints. Your local store is likely to carry a range of options.
They sell made specifically for glass at craft stores.
