I have tried gloss gel medium and I always see and outline which I hate. I tried the washable elmers glue mod podge, waited over night and some of it peeled off. I tried so many ways. I thought this would be it.

The methods always look like "I could do that!", but upon trying, something always goes terribly amiss. I had officially given up on anything that required a transfer. I see now, another method I've never tried. Looks like "I could do that". I'm going to contemplate this one; I've come to believe I'm just too 'dull' to be able to achieve 'anything transfer'.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05149588322029389324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705179360795202415.post-28739812586743847442016-11-01T15:07:04.878-05:002016-11-01T15:07:04.878-05:00Welcome Back Rosemary.

You have, however, to take care that it don't smear because the toner is not burned 'correctly' into the paper - that's fine here because you'll get more toner to stick to the fabricHandyMummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02279502246371927777noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2705179360795202415.post-87646796115498531822016-01-10T17:48:54.685-06:002016-01-10T17:48:54.685-06:00Anita, some paints don't work very well with t...Anita, some paints don't work very well with this method. Sometimes I seal the paint before doing the transfer. You also have to work quickly, and, don't use a ton of acetone. You just have to get the tip wet.<br /><br />Yes, I've found the older laser printers to work better.

I have also had the paint peel up when removing the design. Do you only touch the areas of the design? I "color" back and forth over the design to make sure and get all of it. Some of the laser copies have come from Staples and wonder if their newer machines make it harder. It seems harder to transfer than an old laser printer by brother has.
