How to paint a silicone phone case at home?

A colored or transparent silicone bumper during continuous operation quickly gets dirty and becomes unattractive in appearance. Stains are not removed by cleaning agents or by other means. With minimal time and using available improvised materials, you can update an outdated product by coloring it in any chosen shade.
