Decent water slide paper for the money
Works great as long as you pay attention to the instructions. Now the instructions miss a critical piece of info. You have to print in mirror image much like a T-shirt transfer. Unlike most water slide transfers this one goes top side down so your image is reversed. So in printer settings mirror the image or words and everything else will be backwards. Also make sure you coat the surface of the print (post printing) with an acrylic spray. I use one from hobby lobby I have for photo's and art work but any good acrylic spray works. this kind of holds the image on the paer when you wet it otherwise the image would wash off when you put the cut out image in water. I have used this on coffee mugs and it works fine although you have to hand wash any glass or ceramic surface and not in the dishwasher. My wife forgot and tossed it in the dishwasher and it sort of melted off. but they spell this out in the instructions. Mainly I use this for images on wood that are then coated with either Modge Podge or acrylic. Remember the image is not backed with white once it is slid off so the surface color it is transferring to will affect the image color. On wood I use white pickling stain which works good for my purpose. Also I put a coat of acrylic spray down on the white pickling so that there is a smooth surface or the slide won't stick. Fun stuff to use for man crafts and my grandaughter is always finding another use for it. Print it out on on inkjet in mirro image. Coat with three coats of acrylic spray...let dry and transfer...pretty easy
