Contrary to what the name says, you don't "pounce" the pad, you rub it over the stencil like using a chalkboard eraser.

Really, my favorite marking tool is the blue water soluble pen. It has always washed out for me and leaves a bright easy to see mark on most colors of fabric except really dark darks. For those I use white chalk.
