Would I be able to use matte acrylic spray for this or does it have to be glossy?

[Craftypapers43]

@krowzi You can use either a gloss or matte effect spray. The choice will be dependent on the finish you require.

There's a unique situation I have run into a few times. A good example is the current black Trans Am model I'm building. I'm using inkjet water slip decal paper for the gold effects. The firebird logo has several separate lines in it & any space between those lines will need to show the black paint job of the car underneath. White decal paper's no good here since blank spaces dry white & from previous experience, solid colors are translucent when using clear decal paper. Suggestions? Thanks!

@Jerrico71 As you are applying onto a black surface you will need to use our white decal paper.

To avoid the white colour showing behind your image we suggest creating a block colour of black behind your logo before you print. This will mean that you will be applying the decal as a block, and your printed black background should blend in with your surface colour so that only your logo is visible.

If you need any further information on this please don't hesitate to ask.

Comes out blurry on my HP B110 inkjet.

@denzlepob What type of paper setting are you printing on? We suggest using a "glossy" or "coated" setting. The paper should then print perfectly.

@Eppeh Have you allowed the decal to fully dry on the surface? Once dried the decal will have a tough, hardwearing finish,

If the paper is being used on plates etc where cutlery is coming into contact with the decal on a regular basis then over time this may affect the print finish.

@Eppeh I'm sorry to hear you are having problems with our inkjet paper.

What paper setting are you printing with your printer? If using a normal setting we would suggest changing this to a glossy or coated setting. This should solve the problems you have been having.
