A question about painting the band

[Guest guest]

I have painted Noah's band 3 times now and it peels off. I sanded it before I painted it. I also put on a couple of coats of sealant that is supposed to help hold the paint on. Then I put about 2 coats of paint. Let both of those dry really well, put on my stickers or transfers then about 4 coats of varnish. But it always begins to peel the next day.

What am I doing wrong?

:

it sounds like your doing everything right! Maybe try cleaning

the outside of the band with alcohol before you paint to make sure there

is nothing greasy that's preventing the paint from sticking. The

varnish that I used was "Home Decor" semi-gloss acrylic varnish.

I found it a 's, and it worked really well for me.
