Instructions:
- Lightly sand your base with the sanding block.
- Sprinkle your base with the powder of your choice using a suitable sifter.
If the surface of your substrate is not flat, use the Efcolor fixative to ensure the powder adheres properly. - Using a spatula, place your design on the most suitable Efcolor baking tray, then bake in a Brillantstique oven at 160°C for 3 to 5 minutes (the powder melts and sets at 150°C) or in the Efcolor oven.
- Remove the baking sheet with your creation still on it using an oven mitt or a clothespin, and let it cool.
