Personalise Your Phone Case with POSCA Markers DIY Tutorial
Share
Looking to add a pop of personality to your phone? Grab your favourite POSCA markers and get creative! Whether your case is clear, matte, or glossy, POSCA paint sticks beautifully to plastic – no fuss, just fun.
What You’ll Need:
- Plastic phone case (clear or coloured)
- POSCA Paint Markers – use a mix of fine and broad tips
- Soft cloth or tissue
- Water-based spray varnish (matte or gloss)
- Optional: Pencil and eraser
Step 1: Prep the Surface
No special primer is needed – just clean your phone case with a soft cloth to remove dust or grease. A clean surface means better paint adhesion!
Note: Smoother plastic takes longer to dry, so allow more time before handling.
Step 2: Plan Your Design (Optional)
Sketch out your design with a pencil if you'd like a guide. Or dive in and freestyle your artwork – POSCA markers are great for layering and fixing mistakes.
Step 3: Get Painting
Shake your markers well before use, and press the tip to get the paint flowing. Use broad tips for backgrounds and fine tips for details and outlines.
Step 4: Let It Dry
Let your finished artwork dry fully. Glossy or slick surfaces will take longer, so be patient to avoid smudging.
Step 5: Seal Your Artwork
Protect your design with 2 coats of water-based spray varnish. Hold the can 30cm from the case and spray in smooth, circular motions. Choose matte or gloss for your preferred look.
