You can apply your stencil using your preferred technique. In general, there are different types of applications:

• SPRAY Application: this technique can be used with many types of stencils, but we recommend using rigid stencils, made of wood, plastic, metal or adhesive PVC.
• SPONGE, BRUSH or ROLLER Application: this technique can be used with very thin stencils, preferably made of flexible plastic or adhesive PVC.
• TEXTURAL Applications: to create three-dimensional effects and raised textures, use thick stencils (0.5-3mm) with structural pastes, putty or plaster. Apply the material with a spatula and gently remove the stencil while it’s still wet.
• FOOD Applications: stencils certified for food contact in PET or food-safe acetate. Perfect for decorating cakes with powdered sugar or cocoa, creating designs on cappuccinos, or applying icing on cookies. Always wash before use and only use certified food coloring.

In ALL cases, it’s important to properly prepare the surface on which to apply the stencil, in order to obtain the best possible result.
