Won't the stencil get glued to the shirt with the spray glue?
And the paint, is it acrylics? Won't it fade a bit in the wash?
I just use krylon flat spray paint, or whatever is cheaper at Walmart. The shirts can fade a bit, especially depending on how many coats you put on.'I also found ironing the short inside out after the shirt has dried completely helps bond the paint. I've had shirts last several years and still be distinct. Some have faded, but I also like that distressed look that so many shirts look like these days. Try experimenting with different brands of paint too, and read the label, some are great for fabrics.
Thanks for the advice that was really useful. I will experiment with that!
