One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for compositing a rendered path object into an image buffer. A shader program executing within a graphics processing unit (GPU) performs a stenciling operation for the path object and subsequently performs a texture barrier operation, which invalidates caches configured to store texture and frame buffer data within the GPU. The shader program then performs covering operation for the path object in which the shader renders color samples for the path object and composites the color samples into an image buffer. The shader program binds to the image buffer for access as both a texture map and a writeable image. Stencil values are reset when corresponding pixels are written once per path object, and texture caches are invalidated via the texture barrier operation, which is performed after each covering operation per path object.
