I am currently using old vinyl as templates for painting on block walls. Does anyone know a slick trick for reducing the aggressiveness of vinyl adhesive? i have used talcum powder but there must be something I can more easily spray on without affecting the paint adhesion.
Thanks,
Geoff.

It would have to be a very large sweatshirt! I would probably run the risk of asphyxiation with the size of these sheets. Cheap hair removal I suppose. If you need hair removed.

We envy you guys this year. I love snowmobiling but we never got any real snow this year...Arrrrg! I know I know ...too much of a good thing. Maybe next year we'll have a traditional winter.

Geoff, I'm trying to figure out a couple of things: How large are the masks? Are you putting the powder onto the wall and then trying to apply the vinyl to the wall? Are the block walls painted?
I would think you'd need MORE adhesive to fill in the valleys on the block wall!
But, depending on the answers, you can try to spray a mist-coat of hair spray onto the exposed vinyl adhesive. As it dries it will create a "dry film" which will lessen the adhesive of the vinyl.
