Fuji Emulsion Lifts & Transfers Using a Daylab

This video shows you how to make Fuji transfers & emulsion lifts using a Daylab Copy System Pro. After watching this video you should be able to complete these processes with any style of Daylab or Vivitar Slide Printer, as well as using Polaroid Land Cameras that accept Fuji FP 100C Film. The steps for making Polaroid transfers and emulsion lifts are a bit different. If you need help with these processes, feel free to contact me.

This article was made to accompany an article I wrote for the Workshop Section of Cloth Paper Scissors' November/December 2011 Issue. I would love to hear from you if it helped you or if you have questions.

I will be teaching these processes in Irvine, California, as part of CREATE, an Interweave event. The Fuji emulsion lifts workshop is from 6 - 9 PM, on Saturday, June 2nd. The Fuji transfers workshop is from 9 AM - Noon on Sunday, June 3rd. This takes place at the Hyatt Regency Irvine. Please let me know if you would like to enroll and I can send you in the right direction.

Can't you just lift the emulsion on the original photo?

@tomalophicon Do you mean lift the emulsion on the 4x6" print? Not that I am aware of. The Fuji emulsion is on top of the a backing paper. A machine print at a lab is not the same. Please let me know if you know how to do that because I would be interested....

@tteske69 I'm in the process of trying to do it.

It it's a silver halide print in principle it should be the same thing.

I'll let you know.

@tomalophicon Thanks, I am anxious to hear more...

@tteske69 Hi, it doesn't work...

[tteske69]

@tomalophicon Bummer, I was hoping you were on to something...

[tteske69]

@Davin9922. Yes it does. It is acrylic gel medium. It comes in matte or glossy and can be used as an adhesive and a sealer. The brush strokes are really noticeable on metal, as shown here, but are not very noticeable when applied to paper. It will dry clear on everything.

[Davin9922]

does the medium that you painted on dry clear?
