I also decided to make the mug transparent so that the contents within it can be more defined.

I applied adhesive spray the acrylic first, followed by a couple layers of spray paint, then a polishing spray to create a better finish. Once I was satisfied, I spray painted my coaster.

This would have made the cracks and curves of the can more noticeable. I also found that these crevices disappeared even more after a couple layers of spray paint. If I could go back and change something about this process, I would choose not to use the polish. Overall, I think that using it did the most damage to my details and...
