  • Start stenciling!

              Add a bit of paint to your stencil brush and remove any excess by dabbing on a paper towel.

              Apply paint by using an up and down motion.

 **TIP** Do not overload your brush with paint; less is best. This will ensure that you achieve a perfectly crisp stenciled look. You can always add another coat of paint until the desired shade is achieved.

NOTE: iStencil # 55-00006  is a 2 layer stencil. Easily remove the inner stencil by gently pulling or cutting the tabs that attach the layers. Apply the paint to the first layer, wait a few minutes, then lay the second layer down and stencil.
