Default Re: Splash masking questions

if you masked first, then tried to dye once the mask is removed then thats where it goes wrong. you have to think in reverse order. you can only add mask throughout the proccess until you seal.

so for example: if you want your part black with purple splashes, you ano, then dye purple, mask, bleach, acid dip, bi-carb dip, then into the black. seal, remove mask then seal some more.
