I like my glass measuring cups but the printing on them has really disappeared over time. Does anyone have a measuring cup that they love?

Dang it! 😅

This one is probably older than six years, but it also replaced an identical one that also lost its printing over time, hence why I decided to ask here.

Thankfully we have a pretty good handwashing setup for the things we do not put in the dishwasher; I’m just not eager to add to the list.

    You could buy some acrylic markers and try baking the vessel with the new marks for an hour at 375 F.

    You might want to work your way up to the temp over a few hours to prevent shattering.

    Also, you could put the glass on a sheet and cover with a mixing bowl up keep the heat more consistent.

    I say 375 due to temperature discrepancies in ovens and temperature swings.

    The glass could still break, but if you are throwing it away anyway, what does it matter?
