HUT 1, HUT 2 HEADBOARD
Create a stunning game day chalkboard headboard that not only shows of your style but provides ample space to plan plays and keep score of the Sunday afternoon game.

Spray Doors with Paint Sprayer
In a clean and ventilated work space hang a drop cloth and sweep excess fabric on floor. Place doors on top of fabric and lean against wall. Load iSpray nozzle with black chalkboard paint. Spray doors from left to right holding the sprayer 3-5 inches from the surface of the door. Spray doors completely, including the sides (move spray nozzle to vertical setting to easily spray sides of doors). Let doors dry and repeat coat if necessary.

Spray Stencil with Wagner Paint Sprayer
To add stencil simply pin design to door with push pins. With the sprayer front end loaded with Torch Red paint spray an even coat over the stencil with the Wagner FLEXiO iSpray nozzle. Remove the stencil and let design dry thoroughly. Once dry attach doors together on back with flat mending plates and then affix to the wall with molly bolts.

GRIDIRON GAME WALL
Add a graphic wall design that is unmistakably football inspired and feel like you kicked a field goal.
Spray the wall green working in a smooth left to right motion beginning at the top of the wall. Paint entire wall and let dry thoroughly.
Note: TAPE OFF WOODWORK OR AREAS THAT YOU DON'T WISH TO PAINT. PROTECT MOP BOARDS, FLOOR AND ANY MOLDING WITH DRIP AND DRAPE PLASTIC SHEETING WITH TAPE.

Measure Wall for Stencil & Spray with Paint Sprayer
With a pencil and ruler measure out yard line marks on wall. Begin in center of wall and mark off a 4 inch vertical line that spans the wall top to bottom. Place frog tape to the outside of each pencil mark and wide painters tape on each side of the line (This provides a wider spray border and some relief for the frog tape as it is close in color to the wall.) Measure three feet to the right and left of each tape mark and draw another line. Tape each side of line and continue until wall space is complete with lines.
With the detail finish front end spray each line from top to bottom with white paint. Let dry and remove tape to reveal crisp yard lines. To add yard line numbers simple tape stencil number to each side of each line with painters tape and spray over stencil. Remove stencil to reveal yard line numbers.
