Has anyone ever painted a bowling ball?
+6
I am not sure if a regular kiltz type primer would stick to a bowling ball. I would like to paint art onto it using acrylic paints and a then spray on a clear gloss sealer. I intend this for outside, in the garden.

I just sprayed mine with silver paint and threw fine glitter in mine. That was a few years ago that I did that and it still is in pretty good shape. I made a globe out of it and when the light hit it, it looked pretty.

id first scuff it up a little with 80 grit sandpaper to give primer an extra "bite" id use 123 bullseye primer then paint with the acrylics.

I have painted many of them, just roughed them up a bit and used interior paint on them, made ladybugs, bumblebees, caterpillars and frogs with them for the garden

The kilz should work. Might want to lightly sand with fine grit sand paper.

I used regular craft paint and put them in the garden. It's been 6 years and they still look good?...just dirty. I also use nail enamel for lots of projects. It holds up very well! Hugs
