Snows can be applied with many different tools. Try using a brush, a palette knife, a sponge or a pastry tube. Rinse tool or brush frequently to avoid product buildup.
Allow to dry between coats and 24-48 hours after final application.
Clean up with water.
Tips and Techniques:
Cake decorator technique: Use palette knife to fill pastry tube with No-Fire Snow or Glittering No-Fire Snow. Select tips with large design openings as these products might clog smaller openings. Use slow, steady pressure to squeeze design onto surface to be decorated.Clean design tips thoroughly and dispose of the pastry tube.
Brush design techniques: Load a round synthetic bristle brush heavily with No-fire Snow or Glittering No-Fire Snow allowing a small amount of the product to remain on the tip of the brush bristles. To create raised flower petals and leaves, place tip of brush at end of flower petal or base of leaf. Then press down on the brush, slightly rolling the bristles as stroke is pulled out. Allow to dry for 24-48 hours, then paint design with acrylic colors.
Palette knife technique: No-fired Snows can be applied with a palette knife to create landscapes and designs. Experiment with pressing, pulling and twisting motions with the palette knife for a variety of raised effects. Allow to dry for 24-48 hours, then paint design with acrylic colors.
Holiday Decorations: No-fired Snows can be added to completed projects--ceramic bisque, wood, plaster, glass tree ornaments, grapevine wreaths, greeting cards and more. No-fired Snows are not recommended for decorating holiday windows as they are permanent when dry.
