I was wondering about translating 'delineador' but gutta seems to be applied from a bottle; to describe the technique I would simply put 'Gutta resin on canvas'.

Example sentence:

"Apply gutta with a small nozzle tipped squeeze bottle around the area you want the dye to stay in. Once the gutta has dried you can paint with dyes within the gutta bordered area without worrying about bleeding or spreading. "
