Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Preparation: Ensure your surface is stable and clean. Place the stencil flat onto your project surface, securing it with washi tape or repositionable spray adhesive if needed to prevent shifting.
- Application: Apply your chosen medium (paint, ink, paste, etc.) over the stencil using a sponge, brush, roller, or spray. Work from the edges of the design inward to avoid pushing excess medium under the stencil.
