By Lonnie Kester from Krylon

Paint any plastic cup to transform it into a handy pencil holder.

Materials:

• Krylon Fusion for Plastic® - Fairytale Pink (#2331)
• Plastic cup
• Ammonia-based cleaner or paint thinner
• Drop cloth
• Low-tack masking tape
• Drop cloth

Steps:

1. Using ammonia-based cleaner, wipe down pencil holder to remove any dust or particles. If the plastic is new, wipe down with paint thinner for best results.
    
2. Completely tape off any area that you do not wanted painted. A low tack tape is preferred.
    
3. Shake Fusion can for 2 minutes or more.
    
4. Applying in a well ventilated area, hold can 8" to 10" from surface and spray in a sweeping motion from side to side.
    
5. EZ Touch Fan Spray tip can be adjusted to spray vertically or horizontally – see back label instructions.
    
6. Apply a thin coat and allow to dry for 30 seconds.
    
7. Apply multiple thin coats until surface is completely covered.
    
8. Remove tape immediately after spraying.
    
9. Fusion dries in 15 minutes or less, and can be handled in about 1 hour.
    
10. Fusion must cure a full 7 days to become fully chip and scratch resistant.
