Once you have applied your stencil it's time to "blast". start lightly spaying the foam and be careful of under cutting (bold designs work better as you will see), the paint or solvents will start melting away the styrofoam. Be sure to evenly coat the panel and keep in mind the chemical reaction will keep working after you stop spraying
