I thought that too until I did the first cab stencil today. Simple enough, then disaster.
I've noted in the past sometimes the stencils will stick down too hard and leave a residue when you go to peel them off. What happened today was that on steroids. I literally could not peel it off. It was like it was glued on. Small pieces would break off. Eventually it was ruined so time to start over.
I talked to Jeff and he's mystified by this and thinks it's a reaction to the paint. The problem is it happened on the head, but only on one side. Same paint, same stencil, different result. I think it has to do with temp and humidity change when I take it outside to paint. Don't know for sure. With the head done I can't change paint so that's all I can do is try and keep the temp and humidity constant.
Jeff is great to work with and he cut me a replacement. I'll have to re-do the whole side but that's life. You can see it the pictures one area left just small streaks and the other is just massive. I ended up having to razor blade it all off. Nothing else would work.
