I tried this today and the frost part is sort of smeary. Did I not put on enough of the cream. I did clean with window cleaner before using the cream. Just wondered if anyone has had this happen. Thanks!
Yes, your suspicions are correct, not enough cream.
My tips are:
-make sure the residue of the windex is off the glass (a rinse in clear water and use a good paper towel to dry/buff)
-limit the size your are etching, smaller is better. I use electrical taper to create a border or my coluzzle on contact paper to create a circle or oval space to etch in.
-goop on the cream really thickly in one direction and let it sit for the full amount of time.
If you have a spotty look, then not enough cream.
If your edges are blurred, then the stencil wasnt flat enough against your product and the cream bled underneath.
