Step 3Ready - Set - Discharge!
Now the fun begins!
pour some of the discharge paste (it's a little sticky, but not so bad) on a plate and tap the stencil brush in the paste. Tap a few times on the plate to get and even spread on the brush and then tap the paste on the shirt where the stencil is.
This is not like brushing paint - you hold the brush straight and just tap tap tap till the whole area os covered with paste. Get a thick layer on.
At this stage you won't see anything on the shirt, or just see wetness where the paste is (don't worry, it's not supposed to work just yet.
after you are done - take off the stencil and leave to dry completely, depends on the fabric and the weather, this takes about an hour. (it is recommended, but not mandatory to go out for Mexican food at this stage).
After the shirt is dry, you would not see anything on it, the design just seem to disappear (it's still there, don't worry).
