DIRECTIONS

Note: Always wear rubber gloves and read warning labels carefully when working with etching cream.

1. Using the craft knife, cut a stencil from self-adhesive paper.

2. Stick the stencil on the glass. Rub it on firmly to ensure good adhesion.

3. Use a brush to apply a generous amount of etching cream into the open part of the stencil. Leave on for five minutes.

4. Rinse glass thoroughly with warm water to remove all the cream from the surface. Peel off stencil.
