Instructions
Step 1
Ensure that the mask is clean and gently buff the surface with sandpaper if it is shiny so that the surface becomes matt, this will provide a ‘key’ and ensure a strong bond with the resin glue and crystals.
Step 2
Fill the Crystal FX syringe part way with E6000 resin glue and cover a small section of the mask with a thin layer of glue. Allow 10 minutes for the glue to become tacky, this section of glue will have approximately one hour of work time before it starts drying and will take 24 hours to fully cure.
Step 3
Use the Magic Sorting Tray for storing the Swarovski rhinestones and use the Wax Picker Pen to pick up and place your crystals strategically onto the mask that suits your design. When filling a shape, it is best to start with the outline and work your way in. Try to leave no spaces between your crystals for the best finish.
Step 4
Work your way around your mask in small sections, allowing the glue to set each section at a time before continuing. This is because on three-dimensional items gravity the crystals can slide out of place before the glue has fully dried.
Step 5
Allow it to sit over night to fully dry.
