It's putting water onto/into the ink, so I think it will work well no matter when, as long as your ink is waterbased.

I had a large PLB that took 4 colors (black, red, orange, and yellow) arrive, and I have never used markers before. I figured, being as full of hot air as I am, that it would be no problem inkin-and-a-huffin. I carefully applied the markers to all the right spots, blended as necessary, then prepared to huff away. 3 times I did this, and all I got was really faint images. The last time I tried, I huffed so long and hard I got dizzy, but still to no avail. Ugh! So, unwilling to give up, I boiled some water in a pan. I held the stamp about 8 inches over the water for just two or three seconds, and got a BEAUTIFUL image out of it!
Unfortunately, I was still dizzy from huffing, and seeing double. So now, there is a GORGEOUS image from the Princess Bride PLB stamped directly on my kitchen counter.

I think that's called stenciling in the world of interior decorating. Put a little sealant on it, and it'll increase the value of your home!

This stamp is WildHair's AMAZING entry in The Princess Bride PLB. And as Art alone, it would certainly be a welcome addition to any household. In most cases. However, in THIS case, I don't think it would be taken too well to have something stenciled where you prepare food that says "THERE WILL BE NO SURVIVORS!"

Bleach will take it off. Use a 10% solution, lay paper towels on top, let sit a few, and wipe it up.

i use prismacolor art markers. they are a bit more enxpensive and only sold singularly but for large stamps they retain the moisture (i still huff just in case). also they have a wide tip and a small tip so depending on the area you could use either one.
