STEP 7: Adding the sign to the wall
7b - 7c: Here is the cutout from the black-and-white

Now comes the true test. If you’ve done everything else
right, adding your sign to the wall.
7 - 7a: Here are
the white glue and
Dullcote I use to apply
the signs on the walls.
Dullcote mixed 50/50
with appropriate
thinner and applied
with an airbrush
gives a better, finer
finish than from the
rattlecan.

Tip: Stuck bottle tops?
Try wrapping an elastic
band around the bottle
cap and try again.
9 out 10 times this
solves the slipping
finger problem.
