Create a negative of you design on onion skin.

When placing the film and negative in the exposure unit be aware which side of the film will be next to the glass.

Exposing film

Expose the film for approximately 3 minutes. The exposure time will vary with the quality of the negative you are using. eg. Less opaque = less time

After exposing the film, remove the protective sheet.

It is the sheet that has less shine to it.

Using Warm water and a high pressure nozzle , wash out the design.

You won't see the design at first, but as you are spraying it will appear.

It will take a few minutes spraying to get the design clear.

Let the film dry.

I like to hang mine on the fridge or a cork board.

Cut out the individual designs and apply to glass.

Mask of the edges to protect from overspray.
