Scorch Paint is a fun way to create pyrography-style projects, and I was curious to see how it would perform on a surface other than wood. I tested it on a small craft box made from compressed card, and while the paint did react and create a burned effect, it’s important to use extra caution. Heating a paper-based surface can cause scorching, warping, or even burning much faster than wood, so this technique should be approached carefully. It’s a successful experiment—but one that definitely requires mindfulness and safety awareness.

I used a sticky stencil on the box and applied the scorch paint through the stencil. Then I removed the stencil before heating the surface.
