  • Peel off the tape. This can be kinda fun! One time I got it all to come off in one piece!
  • If you are left with little pieces still on the CD, just cover with a small piece of tape and pull off.



Step #3: Determine your pattern


  • Find a design you'd like to use, or make your own and print it.
  • Tape the CD to the pattern you printed and trace with a marker on the CD.

Sun catcher paint is very liquidy. Be careful not to fill to high. Don't worry about it not looking even, once it dries it will look better.
