Video Transcript

"O.k. now we're going to stop work on this one because we need to let it dry in order to get a hard edge which I'm going to need. I'm going to start working on this one. We're putting down the clean water first then we're going to come in with the rose, straight rose. A little more density. Don't cover the whole area because we're going to have to gradate this out towards the edge. But we do need a little more density towards this area here o.k. Now I've got lots of water in there so I'm going to let it dry for about 40 seconds or so."
