While designed with foil transfers in mind, this adhesive shines when applied to other mediums as well. Here's how to leverage its versatility:
- Glitter: Add a touch of sparkle to your projects! The adhesive sets the stage for glitter in just 5 to 10 minutes, holding each speck with precision.
- Mica Flakes: For a subtle shimmer, let the adhesive dry for about 30 minutes before applying mica flakes. This ensures they adhere well without overwhelming your design.
Apply one coat using a low-nap roller and allow to dry to a firm tack (approximately 1 to 2 hours - longer in high humidity areas) and apply your foil for a near flawless release. Soap and water clean-up.
** If you are working on a non-porous surface (i.e. hard plastic) the surface must be prepped with a base coat of paint. Foils will not transfer to a non-porous surface that has not been properly prepped.
**Step 1 - Apply a base coat of paint to project that is complimentary to the foil color you are using and allow to dry.
Step 2 - Apply one coat of the Foil Adhesive to your surface by brush or roller. The material dose not self-level, so apply in one direction and try to smooth out your brush strokes.
Step 3 - Allow the Foil Adhesive to dry for no less than 1 hour. It will dry to a firm tack and will never dry beyond this firm tack.
Step 4 - Once dry, place foil, color side facing up, on top of the adhesive surface. To transfer, rub the foil with a soft rag and/or a plastic bristle scrub brush. Slowly peel back foil sheet away to see if you have enough transfer, if not, place foil back down and scrub more.
Step 5 - Protection: Foils need to be protected, make sure to apply at least one coat of you favorite top coat & make a sample first to see how the top coat effects the foil sheen
