Just brush it on, let dry, paint and peel!
1. Always dampen brush or sponge thoroughly with Duncan Brush Cleaner n
....squeeze out excess before loading with Mask ' Peel to desired areas.
2. Apply one good coat of Mask 'n Peel to desired areas.
3. Allow Mask 'n Peel to dry thoroughly before applying color over it.
....Heavy applications tend to dry on the surface before drying underneath.
....When this occurs, Mask 'n Peel peels off in layers.
....For this reason, any heavy areas should be checked for traces of Mask 'n Peel
....before proceeding with the technique.
4. When removing, lift the corner of the masked area with a tool or fingernail,
....and use fingertips to roll the mask toward the area rather than away from it.
....In this way, the mask can usually be removed in one peice.
....However, always check for any small particles that may be left behind.
5. Always use Mask 'n Peel in a well-ventilated area.
6. Clean brush in Brush Cleaner and rinse in warm water immediately after use.
....If Mask 'n Peel should accidentally dry in the brush before it can be cleaned,
....soak in Antiquing Solvent or mineral spirits to loosen residue, then wash in warm,
....soapy water to complete cleaning. Wipe rim of jar and inside of lid, then close tightly.
