Get ready to say I do with your Kicks!
Instructions
- Surface Prep: For leather surfaces–gently wipe with alcohol to clean and remove debris. Let dry before painting. For vinyl–wash gently with soap and water, rinse well and let dry. For canvas–wash and dry according to care tag instructions before painting.
- Remove laces and tape off any areas of the project surface you do not want to paint with masking
- tape including the inside of the shoe and the sole.
- Using the project photo as inspiration, sketch out your design using a pencil directly onto the shoe.
- Fill in your design with the colors listed or the colors of your choice. Allow to dry and add a second coat.
- Blend your colors where they meet using your favorite ombre technique. This may take many coats and a good amount of fussing. Stick with it!
- Brush on small amounts of white in the yellow areas to create the “hottest” spots.
- Using black, outline your flames to create a crisp edge.
- Allow 24 hours to dry, and 30 days to fully cure.
- Optional: For best results, seal with Kicks Studio Matte or High Gloss Finish.
- Allow 24 hours to dry, and 30 days to fully cure. Allow the paint to fully cure before cleaning.
