Mix the ingredients in a bowl and knead till it becomes the consistency of putty. Alow it to dry 30 min to an hour before it will be workable. Silly putty should bounce and pick up newsprint. Store in an airtight container.

DIY Window Paint
Geat for the holidays or if you have a car for sale.
washable paint (like tempura paint)
dishwashing liquid
The more paint you use the thicker and harder to clean it will be. Use a basting brush or other paint brush. Wipes off most surfaces when wet but only comes off glass easily when dried.
