tips for making your own

gonna make a post on how to make your own stencils soon (read: when things get a little less hectic) but for now, i've been finding out some really interesting things with spraypaints and different textiles/material.

basically,

flat spraypaint is GREAT for tightly-knit, semi-waterproofed material like canvas. it soaks in and holds detail VERY well.

however, glossy spraypaint works MUCHHH better for polyester, or porous material (such as polo shirts).

t-shirts can use either. you get a crisper image with glossy on t-shirts, but flat holds the colour a LOT better.

that's all for now :)
