Directions

1. Clean the pumpkin with soap and water then wipe the surface with 91% Isopropyl alcohol to remove any wax.

2. Choose to paint or stain the pumpkin depending on your preferred design. Or paint your design directly onto the orange skin itself using the natural color of the pumpkin to enhance the image. Amsterdam Standard Acrylic Colors and Inks are available in a wide variety of transparent, semitransparent, and opaque colors.
