I've seen a lot of products out there, e.g. from Krylon.

Is that a decent choice, or is there a better solution that (ai broken) Google search isn't showing me? Anything to recommend from experience?

Thinking about cutting stencils, since my 5W laser isn't great for much else. Gotta get my money's worth.

Thanks

Edit: I guess it'd also be good to know of there area issues with a tack spray and existing finishes I should be aware of...

Most of the lives I'm seeing claim "low tack" but what does that mean in our context of finishing enclosures ourselves, or just other materials in general...

Tack spray is ok until it's time to take it off. I use painters tape.

I'm used some one time. I had to sand the paper stencil off.
