Tips For Silk
Silk paints are best used on a smooth surface, and rounded surfaces show more of the shimmer in the light.
Soft oval brushes work best for a smooth finish; apply paint in one direction to minimize brush-strokes in finish.
Use a small round brush for detailed work
If applying multiple coats, allow each coat to dry completely for applying the next.
Once the final coat is dry to the touch, use a soft fabric or craft paper to buff the painted surface to further accentuate the paint’s luminous shimmer.
Silk colors are intermixable. When creating custom colors, be sure to make enough for your intended project.
