	What can I do if I brush over or under the edge of the stencil with paint?

			If you brush over the edge of the stencil surface to the surface surrounding the stencil sheet, or if the brush goes under the stencil during the stenciling process, use the Stencil Eraser to remove the smudge. If the smudge occurs when using Dry Brush ™ Stencil Paints , put some masking tape over the smudge to remove undried paint, then carefully erase with the Stencil Eraser.

			If the smudge is dark, reposition the stencil and slightly shift to cover the smudged area and re-stencil the shape over the smudge. The end result will not be noticeable. You may also choose to add a leaf or some other design element over the smudged print. This gives a free-form look.

			To remove a smudge not connected to another part of the stencil design when using Stencil Gel or FolkArt ® Acrylic Colors, immediately use a pull-up pre-moistened wipe or a swab moistened with isopropyl alcohol to remove the print. Let dry. Use the Stencil Eraser to remove any remaining pigment, and then re-stencil. If the eraser or the moistened towel will not remove the smudge, go back with some touch-up background paint. Repaint. When thoroughly dry, re-stencil.
