Prepare Colors: Make a color wash with a pump spray bottle and Golden High Flow Colors, straight from the bottle or diluted with water.

Background color and design: compose with stencils arranging them as you like, spray colors holding bottles approximately 12-16 inches from the paper surface, allow to dry.
Step #3
Immediate image transfer: brush Golden Fluid Matte Medium generously and evenly over the surface apply photocopy image side down use pressure (I used a Bondo applicator)to marry the two surfaces together remove and bumps or buckles that may arise then wait 1-3 minutes until the transfer process is complete, remove paper by lifting corners and pulling it away from the terraskin.
