Help
My technique & color matching has improved since I did my A-5.
I printed off several copies of the same section of M.C., on
regular paper.
I broke down the color patterns & cut out each color step individually.
They were all 'female' stencils.
1. Base coat {a} & feathered brown stripe {b}.
{a}KRYLON Outdoor Spaces Textured Khaki, which has a rough finish &
is more pink than the KRYLON Camo Khaki.
{b}RUSTOLEUM Multicolor Textured with no label, but a medium brown.
Then, a quick pass (dusting) of the KRYLON Camo Khaki, just to tone
down the brown.
2. KRYLON Camo Khaki stenciles over the textured khaki & just into,
but not much into the brown stripe.
They are placed sparingly & may or may not end up being
visible in the finished project, but they're in M.C., so ... do it.
3. RUSTOLEUM Multicolor Textured stencils over the brown stripe
and the pink base.
4. {a}KRYLON FUSION Honeydew Mellon large stencils, over the
whole thing.
The mellon color is just the base for this step.
After it's in place there are two more steps.
{b} CANPRO Olive Drab Green is dusted over top to get the
lighter green.
{c} KRYLON OUTDOOR SPACES Moss is dusted onto half of the
stencil, blending into the mellon/o.d.
5. KRYLON OUTDOOR SPACES Moss stencils are done overtop of
the other green stuff.
6. KRYLON Camo Brown stencils over the entire piece.
7. KRYLON OUTDOOR SPACES Sand stencils, with a very light
dusting of the camo khaki, just to tone it down.
8. Clearcoat 4 coats with a flat varnish & bake at 140*F for a
couple hours in the oven, to finish.
