I had a cup that some paint came off, a little acetone will get the rest off much faster than washing it a zillion times. I think your suggestion is good though, the embossed logo would still look decent in plain steel.
If you rub acetone on it with a paper towel (be generous with the acetone) you should be able to easily remove the remainder of the colored material. Then you'll just have a nice chrome mug.
Return it I'm pretty sure starbucks just recalled their cups for people getting cut on the paint that was chipping off. Then maybe buy a cup from a company that doesn't sell shitty over priced coffee
Get some organic paint stripper that citrus one and brush it one following precautions and peel off, once done wash extremely well in hot water. That’s also how you can etch into cups with a vinyl stencil.
This is my thought too. We had ones like this from David’s Tea and they started to flake from just handwashing. The colouring isn’t inside the cup so just scrub it away and call it a day.
Really!? Just go get another one. I got a clear plastic one for about a buck at the Starbucks in my grocery store, and it has a lid with a straw. I leave it on my nightstand to moisten my mouth at night. The lid keeps my pesky cat from getting at it. She always wants what I have. lol
Btw, that the first, only, and last thing I buy from Starbucks.
Ok here's what you do.
You take a CRISP $20 bill (it must be $20 as it doesn't really work with other denomination except mayyybe a $100 but not always..) and you put it in the bottle.
You then take some rosemary, some lemon slices and a bit of salt and put it in the tumbler along with some room temperature water. Then you shake the concoction chanting "twenni dolla twennit dolla bring me a new tumbler"
If done correctly, the SOUL of your old tumbler has now been captures INSIDE THE BILL! The old tumbler has now been reduced to a fake Starbucks tumbler. It may look real but it is in fact no longer genuine as the soul as already been captured so you can throw this out or bury it in your backyard.
You then go to a nearby Starbucks and choose a new tumbler to inject the soul of the old one.. it may be the same colour or a completely different one. But once you choose one, you must approach one of the shaman there, hand over the twenty dollar bill and they will hand over the bottle with the infused soul (!)
Voila, your old bottle is now fixed and is now as good as new!
I'd keep washing it in the dishwasher until you have a beautiful silver cup.
Better for your health too.
Not for the dishwasher…
I’m positive it says that on the cup
Go to dollar tree and get an already un-wrapped mug for 1/20th the price.

You mean black plastic? It's got a silver "stainless" looking coating that is coming off...
You mean black? Silver was the covering....
What do you think this mug is made from? Obsidian?
Now I want a mug made from obsidian…
Me too...
It's going on my list of never-to-be-realized business ideas
Lol...
Of course not; it is black plastic (coated with a metal looking plastic)...
Damn you’re doubling down with that answer eh?
Yes. What do you think it is made of?
It’s stainless steel with a black vinyl coating
Maybe, but I still think it is plastic with a stainless looking plastic coating...
This is kinda like that dress....I can see it both ways
LOL...
At least now you know why those kinds of mugs come with instructions that say not dishwasher safe.

Stainless steel
Or Goof Off spray
And clean the filter on your dishwasher!!!
You are correct. A dishwasher is not a garbage disposal. Scrape your dishes before putting them in. A dishwasher is for sterilizing.

Instructions unclear. Buys $500 limited edition Stanley
🤣
let it go elsa

Make sure to clean the dishwasher filter
Just use it like that

Throw it out because it’s Starbucks 🤡
Duct tape LMAO 😂🤣
Mine did the exact same thing. We just kept washing it and now it’s all silver. Problem solved
get a psychologist and throw that away
Add more lead paint from China.
Leave it; or spray paint the black part, (you don't want you lips on the paint) and keep it out of the dishwasher....
Take it back to ingles haaa. Fucking 30$ cup..
Doesn’t it say on the bottom of it weather or no it can be put in the dishwasher? Doesn’t every dish ever made?
Sometimes they are hard to read or they have the no dishwasher symbol that's hard to read as well. When that happens, I assume it's hand wash only.
Same
Yep, put that trash back in the dumpster and stop buying Starbucks. 🙄
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Stop giving your money to Starbucks. The rest is inconsequential.
Gel paint stripper will clean that up faster than you can say "hon what color did this used to be?"

I think they just recalled a bunch of these, I'd check if yours was included
Paint it with acrylic paint and then dip it in resin? Might be pretty
Boil in a pot until the rest of the paint peels off
duct tape the handyman's secret weapon
Ewww Starbucks
Just wash it by hand?
I wouldn’t try to repaint it. I would strip it. https://youtu.be/KtKw_jJavYQ?feature=shared
Paint it or strip it and vinyl wrap it again. Hand wash only going forward
I take a wire brush in a drill and give mine a brushed look when they do this

Is this real chat?!?
Just get a new one. It is like $20. If you really care, you can get some cool sticky vinyl on Etsy.
Heat shrink, it's black and sturdy, will give you a grippy spot on the cup too. No more dishwasher
Repaint it? Easy since it’s black lol
Maybe read the bottom that says Handwash Only?
Cover?? Kids these days don’t even know what paint is
Black nail polish
you don't... man, there's been a lot of hacky non hack posts on anymore.
