instructions

  1. Cut out the letters you’ll need from your mesh stencil packs to create your desired phrase. Arrange the letters onto your surface. Remove the backing from your adhesive stencil and place them on your surface.
  2. Squeeze your stencil paste onto your squeegee, and apply the paste to your stencil by dragging the squeegee over your stencil. Replenish your squeegee with more paste if needed. Rinse off your squeegee in between colors.
  3. Remove your stencils from your surface while the paste is still wet.
  4. Wash your wet stencil with warm water to reuse.

Yes, FolkArt Sign Shop Stencil Paste will mix well within the colors of each variety set.  Simply squeeze out a small amount of each color to be mixed. Begin by adding a small amount of the darker color into the lighter color, then continue adding small amounts of the darker color, a little at a time, until the desired color or value is achieved. It is recommended to use a palette knife to mix two or more colors when creating a custom color. 

No, FolkArt Sign Shop Multi-Surface Chalkboard Paint should not be mixed with water, mediums or other acrylic paints.  Mixing will destroy the properties that make this paint work as a chalkboard surface.
