Acrylic is not a good choice, it will peel right off your mug, as it is water based. Even though it dries to a plastic like finish, if you get that mug wet the paint will come off. Go for an oil based paint. Of course, do I even need to say it, don't use it on the inside or anywhere where your lips will touch. Also, don't pee into the wind or put your tongue on a flagpole in february.
