Hold on right so they don't leak and minimal paint on brushes
I use a spray on adhesive by 3M so that the entire stencil is held down. Make sure after you spray the temp adhesive , that you let it dry to just tacky (a few seconds) before using it so that no residue gets on your project. Then use a roller or stenciling paint brush for painting. The paint should go on almost dry so that no bleeding occurs under the edges of the stencil.
