Best NOT to be tempted to dry with a heat tool or hairdryer as the masking fluid might bake into the paper, making it impossible to remove. Allow it to dry completely naturally…generally between 15-30 minutes depending on how thickly you’ve applied it. Another tip is to pour a small amount of the masking fluid into a small ( eg. water bottle) lid you are recycling/ reusing and quickly recapping the original container…as air will dry out the contents of the original bottle super quickly. As it is, most brands of masking fluid won’t remain useable indefinitely.

@tamarakrick3124 Год назад

A crepe rubber pick up eraser works best. Does not lift the paper. It's a really bumpy hard eraser. You can find them in any art store.

@purplestarkatz Год назад

I have never heard of a "crepe rubber" before, but that visibly describes my "glue eraser", so I guess the name varies depending on where you live.

@andreak770 Год назад

I use one too. So much easier!

@gadijamajiet2176 Год назад

Yes rubber picker works well, I use it too

@hannahwallace-yarrow2595 Год назад

I protect my brushes with dish liquid/liquid soap. Also, it makes clean up easier. I also have these special pen things that are metal for applying fine lines of masking fluid.

@gopipavi9653 Год назад

You can also use silicone tipped modelling brushes to apply masking fluid.

@nataliyagavrilova3329 Год назад

There is a special masking fluid eraser that works much better then kneaded eraser. I use it all the time.

@slfaina Год назад

Great content! This is the first you tube video I’ve seen teaching about masking. It’s such a useful tool.

@DianaNorman Год назад

Ruling pen to apply masking fluid. You can change the line thickness and the rubber peels right off when done.

@annehebert6959 Год назад

Morning Emma. I found a set of silicone tools that I can use to apply the masking fluid. They come in different shapes for bigger or smaller projects. Thank you for sharing.

@anacantinho Год назад

I have used them also and you just have to let the masking fluid dry and peel it off

@grriva_boje Год назад

Hi! I’m planing to buy W&N masking fluid, so this video is just what I needed!😄 Molotow is always leaving some spots and marks, so I don’t like it a lot. Sometimes I make a conture with it, and then apply regular liquid masking fluid inside this marks. It works a little better.. for removing dry masking fluid from a painting, I’ve wraped my finger in a plastic bag. This way was the easiest from my expirience. Sorry for my bad English, btw…😬

@maryannprzybycien2013 Год назад

I use silicone tipped tools to apply masking fluid. Peels right off the tip when dry. They come in different shapes and sizes.

Awesome tutorial! Thanks so much…BTW love the daisy painting ♥️

@elizabethfield6526 Год назад

Excellent video! Thank you so much.

@roseanneespino4452 10 месяцев назад

Ty for a great instructional video! I’m glad you said that the masking fluid can ruin brushes because I just bought a little more expensive brushes and will use my old ones for masking my paintings!

@Sick1982 Год назад

Good one! I got really frustrated with the Molotow, and seeing how easy it is with the W&N, I now know it's going to be worth the try!! ❤

@Doggymomma52 Год назад

I love those brushes. I have them. Great for detailing

@lilymorales5922 Год назад

Thanks Emma, for the masking fluid tutorial; I understand it better now.

Excellent information how to use masking fluid!

@Tugboat-R-Us 7 месяцев назад

I recommend cement rubber eraser. I don’t use my finger bc I was taught that the oils from your fingers can potentially transfer onto your paper. My first attempt at masking fluid went horribly wrong. I was so excited over the painting. My sky looked gorgeous. My trees were popping. I used the fluid to cover my roof of the cabin bc I wanted it to look like snow was on the roof. When I started to remove, I noticed some spots refused to remove, some areas removed perfectly but then some areas actually removed the paper. It was Canson 140lb 300 gsm Cold pressed. I was devastated. Nothing like feeling pure joy over where your painting is going when you realize that you ruined it and can’t fix it. I used Gouache finally for the roof to try and cover the areas but it still didn’t look right. I definitely agree to test before applying to your actual painting. Much love everyone and Merry Christmas 🎄

@valperkins6621 Год назад

I use a rubber cement eraser with mine and it works well

@sunmoon1084 Год назад

The soap tip makes me nervous but I can test it in my art journal 😅

@vivdawson5953 9 месяцев назад

Thankyou Very helpful

@NWalker2010 Год назад

I could use a set of detailed brushes for masking fluid. Can you provide the link to the pack you used today?

@michaelagampe7685 Год назад

I also heard : use a glass pen for apply mask fluid, also for remove it again ! It's easier to clean too !

@la_reinale 3 месяца назад

i really enjoyed this video very much! what about masking fluid with watercolour pencils?

@MaryYoungblood-xy8vg Год назад

A rubber cement pickup works best for removing masking fluid.

@tammiemitchell-vx5dv 6 месяцев назад

How well does masking fluid work if I apply it to an already watercolor area

@susanschmidler3122 12 дней назад

Is it possible to get a fading edge, like the edges of a fluffy cloud?

@Lunastia7256 2 месяца назад

How much time does it take to dry?

@technonarg5978 Год назад

Great video Emma, well explained and demonstrated and now I can't wait to get some and try it out. Thanks for sharing. :-)

@lauraflaim3597 Год назад

Great video! Did the masking fluid come out of the brush when you used soap? Just curious!

@lainareeves3755 Год назад

Hi Laura, I completely cover my bristles in bar soap. If I’m using a lot of masking fluid for say like landscapes, I sometimes clean the brush before I've finished and cover it well with soap again and continue masking and then I clean it well afterwards. And yes, it comes off nicely.

@lauraflaim3597 Год назад

@@lainareeves3755 Thank you!

@user-pu9oj2mi7m 3 месяца назад

anyone have any ideas of how long it might take to dry, because i am quite unsure about determining when it definitly is...

@CarolynNoblett Год назад

I rub my brush on a wet bar of soap protects it well.

@camilosanabria2179 Год назад

To avoid the graphite marks use a 7h pencil instead 😊

@debpaolucciojanomethreadar2357 Год назад

What kind of tape did you use to frame it ?

Painters tape from the dollarstore

@louiez.9748 6 месяцев назад

I have a bottle of Daniel Smith masking fluid and trying to peel it off almost gave me Tourett's syndrome. It sticks so much that it is almost impossible to remove it.

@kellimartin4583 Год назад

A rubber cement eraser takes it right off.

@joymiller9668 11 месяцев назад

You should try a ruling pen instead

Thank you Emma 😊. I've tried masking fluid before and it's still on the paper lololol 😅 I forgot about painting it. Oh well? Thanks again JK FLORIDA 🇺🇸
