mattslaptop247 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 can you buy the kit in the uk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattslaptop247 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 can you buy the kit in the uk? Just been looking on ebay, dont know if this is the same or not, but you can buy water transfer paper on ebay £8 for 20 sheets. You use your printer to print your design onto it, spay it with acrylic, pop in water, leave for 30 seconds and then apply to your item, just like in the clip above. Sounds a bit too cheep to be good!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deejay Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 (edited) Check the vids on youtube. You can buy the kit, VERY easy to do and very cheap to buy It cant be imported due to the aerosols I have spoke to the guy who deals with them and I have even had the film sent through . I managed to track down a COUPLE of activator mixs and have tried a couple of others that I have been sent but these have failed so far,I have tried to DIP my sak mod and it has not turned out the way I thought it would .I did use the white basecoat instead of the sandstone/dessert type colour . The first one was the second one I dipped and the last was the one I tried first I think I didnt leave it in the water long enough as when I dipped it I could still feel the pva film on it .

HA ha ha Mate I have even tried this and to be honest ,If the surface that your covering is smooth and flat then its pretty good stuff ,just make sure you use a good quality ink as this will effect the finished item . If you want more details give me pm . Reagards Darren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
