Astuces de l'émission

• The masking fluid has a faint glue-like smell, which is normal.
• Do not worry if your painting looks messy whilst wet; the final result will look much better once trimmed and mounted.
• Make sure your paint is completely dry before rubbing away the masking fluid, otherwise you will spread the paint.
