1st time painting

[SgtM]

Here's the second one I did. White base, gloss black color coat. It's not perfect, but with the info onelegout posted earlier, the next one is going to be right on! Let me know what you all think.

The inspiration for this one is my bro's business, Pirates Cove Graphics (www.pcgtees.com)

The same thing happened with this one. Some of the black peeled because of the masking tape. Let me know what you all think of this one.

That looks a lot better but youre still getting a fair bit of bleeding!
Don't worry about the spray adhesive. just make sure you
A) Only spray a very thin mist of it into the stencil
B) Wait for it to dry so that it is only tacky NOT sticky!
C) Make absolutely sure that the paint underneath is totaly dry.
D) Do not *push* the stencil onto the surface - this sometimes causes glossy paints to bond with the acetate and adhesive and when you peel the stencil off it takes the paint underneath it with it!

Also, look for '3M Spray mount'. - This is designed to be used tacky not sticky and it is designed to make the things that it is sticking removable not permanant!

I look forward to seeing the result!

Edit: Oh yeah, and on that site www.stencilrevolution.com, you will find in the 'advice and tips' section of the forum, a stickied thread called 'the beginner's bible' - you might want to look through that for more tips/suggestions/advice. It's my brainchild hahah.
