Would this be good for painting with a stencil on a metal or wooden surface?

For laying the color i'm sure it is fine. For metal or wood, if you want it to last you must use the appropriate primer (Metal) or Bonder (Wood). It will only stick to a surface as well as it can bond to it. (I like my Martini, Shaken not Stirred). Anyway, I have just began to use it with an airbrush. It having such a broad range of colors, allows for simpler blends. Then I will use the stencil with the type of artwork I am using.

I've only used it on metal and plastic. I did not sand... I did clean the surfaces quite well though... ;-) This paint has a metal fleck appearance though is more flat than glossy and not as reflective as one might think. It's a very cool looking paint.

The label says it is good on "wood, paper, metal, etc." ... Hope that helps.

I think it would work well on any bare metal, as long as you wipe it clean with some rubbing alcohol before coating it with the paint. The alcohol will remove any wax or greese that may be on the copper, or any surface for that matter. Be sure to spray 3 to 4 very thin coats within 10 minutes of each. Make the last coat the heaviest without running the paint.

I haven't tried it on something that requires a smaller line. If you have a way to be sure it doesn't get on your skin (like a stencil) I'd say sure you could use it for that if you wanted. It doesn't spray a wide area, its just that I haven't tried using it on something that requires more precision.

Sorry, I have only ued it on wood and look great on well sanded wood. I'm sure it would look good on metal as wel. Have used other colors of this product on metal and it is the only brand I Use in my shop.

Yes - though maybe better for DRAWING circles on wood, and then painting. It goes up to a diameter of about 6". If you had a cylindrical piece of wood, you would put this over it and then draw...

I think it will work on any metal surface. If you did the polishing, make sure the polish didn't have any silicone or wax in it. If it did, I would use lacquer thinner to clean before spraying. I found that this product does not work on outdoor projects. I used it on exterior brass door hardware and it lasted about two weeks before peeling.

We love it the way it is......the metal is slightly on the rough side......I guess if you SPRAY!! painted, it might work. Good luck

I'm pretty sure it will. I tried it on heavy stencil plastic and it went right through.

I personaly don't use this paint. I bought this for an elderly client that I take care of. He uses it on wooded areas, paper and canvas. If your figures are going to be wooden I say this is the product for you but if you're trying to do glass or plastic. I don't think it'll be a good Idea.

That I'm not sure. I only used it to paint with a sprayer in my garage. I would try contacting the manufacturer so you would know for sure. Sorry I couldn't help more.

I would say yes, it would dull the effects of the metallic paint. Since this is a wax it creates a barrier that will cause a slight clouding of any finish. I would really suggest this for only unpainted or stained woods since it will bring out the grains in those. I can't really see this working well for any painted finish. However, I would be happy to try it out and let you know how it reacts!

It's a smooth plastic surface, so it would not be very easy to paint. But I'm not a pro so I guess anything is possible.

I cannot give you an answer because I used it with a primer and only used this paint on some hardware for drawers from ikea. If you can prime the aluminum, I would assume it will be fine. Btw...the hardware I painted had a bit of a matte finish to it already too. The gold color itself is really nice. Sorry...

This stencil vinyl is clear, and good for making a stencil to paint sayings onto wood. However, the type of paint or finish of the wood is important, as it is hard to stick the vinyl to certain types of finishes when stenciling. Modge podge is good to cover the wood/ surface for stenciling on top of. However, if you just wanted a colored vinyl to transfer to the wood, indoor/outdoor vinyl works best In any color. If you use silhouette vinyl, use the permanent kind, as the removable kind peels up easily when you remove transfer paper, without a shiny surface underneath ( hence, the usefulness of a layer of modge podge underneath. )

hmmm, not really sure! I know it isn't as 'weatherproof' as touted - the colors ran and paper deteriorated when I posted 'lost cat' pictures on poles. If you are using inside with minimal water I don't see much reason why stencils wouldn't work... good luck!
