Step 2Mask shaft and thread
Carefully and accurately mask the shaft of the wand with masking tape. Make sure it is tight round the end of the shaft where it meets the body, but wind it loosely round the rest of the shaft so that it will be easier to peel off later.
Scrunch up some masking tape and poke it down inside the battery compartment to mask off the battery door thread. Getting spray on this might stop the wand working.
IMPORTANT NOTE: At this point you are about to make changes to your wand (or whatever you are distressing) that can not be undone. DO NOT continue if you are a) doing this to someone else's equipment, or b) you are worried that you might ruin your prized possession...
Once the wand is neatly masked up you could gently run some very fine (600-900 grade) wet and dry emery paper, over the surface to be painted. You don't want to see visible scratches, but a slight key will help the next stage.
