DIRECTIONS FOR USE AS A PAINT, HEAVY GLAZE, or ANTIQUING/DRY BRUSHING ON
WOOD, GLASS, METAL, FABRIC, POTTERY, WICKER, CONCRETE & LAMINATE:
• SHAKE BEFORE USING.
• Use Unicorn SPiT right out of the bottle for a paint application or dilute it up
to 10% with water for antiquing or dry brushing. Diluting Unicorn SPiT with
water allows you to control the opaqueness. For antiquing or dry brushing,
add 10 parts Unicorn SPiT in a re-sealable container to be diluted with water.
Test the dilution on a small, dry, clean sample piece of the same substrate as
your project, gradually adding up to 1 part water until the desired effect is
achieved.
• Apply the diluted Unicorn SPiT to the surface once it is completely void of all
oil, sealer, dirt, grime, paint, stain, or anything that may inhibit the product
from contacting the bare surface.
• Continue to add or blend multiple colors to the surface in separate areas
creating designs to achieve the desired look.
