Apply a generous amount of shaving cream. After applying the shaving cream, its best to smooth it out using a spoon or a brush.
Preparing the Paint

Pour a bit of paint on top of the shaving cream. Then, grab your toothpick and make a pattern of your choice to spread the paint around.
**Tip: Do NOT mix paint completely**

Get your project and roll it on top of the paint & shaving cream. Do not worry about getting your project and hands dirty.
Bubble Bath

Take your project to the sink and let the water wash down the shaving cream, and fire the project for a second time.
**Tip: Do NOT rub the paint off, this will cause the paint to come off completely and the marble effect will not appear.**

Play around with the paint and designs as much as you want for different and colorful results.
**Tip: Under glaze paint is not shiny and smooth, it is optional to apply a coat of clear glaze.**
