Instructions

  1. Begin with properly fired shelf cone 04 Bisque. Moisten a clean sponge and wipe bisque to remove any dust.
  2. Slightly thin FN-003 Red, pour inside the car, turn to coat and pour out the excess glaze. Wipe off any color from the windshield and the body of the car.
  3. Pencil a line to divide the car. Use a palette knife to mix SC-15 Tuxedo with AC-310 Silkscreen Medium to the consistency of peanut butter. Use the candy cane screen from DSS-0133 Merry Christmas. With the shiny side down, rub the thickened Tuxedo over the screen. Continue using the screen to change angles of the candy cane to covet the top section of the car. The screen can be used multiple times before it needs cleaning.
  4. Use the Soft Fan to apply three coats of SC-36 Irish Luck to the windshield. Use the Liner to apply two coats of SC-74 Hot Tamale to the trim of the windshield.
  5. Use the Soft Fan to apply three thinned coats of SC-27 Sour Apple to the lower section of the car. Use the Script Liner or Liner to apply two or three coats of SC-36 Irish Luck to the trim at the bottom and bumpers.
  6. Use the Script Liner to apply three coats of SC-74 Hot Tamale to the front grill. Apply three coats of Hot Tamale and SC-16 Cotton Tail to the wheels and two coats of SC-15 Tuxedo to the tires.
  7. Apply thin tape on both sides of the pencil line, leaving 1/4″ space. Use the Script Liner to apply two coats of SC-74 Hot Tamale to create the stripe.
  8. Use the Liner to fill in the ribbon on the candy canes, one coat.
  9. Use the Script Liner with thinned SC-35 Gray Hare to add shading to the shadow areas on the top section of the car.
  10. Use the Soft Fan to apply two coats of NT-BR Brushing Glaze to the top section of the car. Apply one coat of SG-701 Star Dust over the Sour Apple on the bottom section of the car.
  11. Fire to cone 05/06.
