Baking stencil cream paints
Permalink   


I painted the limbs of my Berenguer (present avatar) with stencil cream paints.  Her nails are peeling (the varnish I put on was bad).  So I want to take off the varnish and paint her nailbeds with Genesis paints.  Also her nailtips, as the acrylics I used are rubbing off.  Is this okay?  What might happen to the stencil cream paints when baked?  Thanks.

Hello Andrea, I think you would be better off taking the paint all off and redoing it, that way you know the paint and sealer is compatable.weirdface June M from Oz.

Thanks both of you. TEA, the DVD has not arrived yet, but it should be here soon. Maybe I will strip the hands, but then I'd be tempted to do the face too so that it would match. I'd end up with a different baby. :) I'm not sure how good it is to bake the hair that much, though. What can I use to remove the paint? I have acetone, and some non-acetone fingernail polish remover. Would that work? Any opinions on what I should do? Thanks.

As you already have the hair rooted, You could strip off all the paint with acetone,and wash it in warm soapy water and dry. It won,t do anthing to the hair to bake, paint and root hair all at the same time, as they only have weekend classes, so to cut down on time that is what they do, it,s no worse than drying a pair of shoes in the oven or your hair with a hair dryer. I,ve ben doing it and they also fasten drying the glue after you have glued the hair ,in the oven, I don't know if you remember how hot getting your hair set at the hair dresser, well mohair is a natural fiber, and would be no worse than the cloth or toel you lay your parts on.weirdfaceJune M from Oz
