  • I need help i have done this technique at College and its amazing but i can't remember the full name of that glue ive been looking everywhere but im not sure which one is it and where to buy it on internet?.

  • @14Martynka215 - I am not sure what you mean by "glue" , but the technique demonstrated here used GOLDEN Fluid Matte Medium. You can find that at most Golden online and retail stores. (It can be used as glue.... particularly in collage, so I get where you're coming from, but if you use "glue" as your keyword, you won't find our Fluid Matte Medium)

  • Hi, Its nice technique...

    I have a question, If I am using this technique on fabric, I can wash it after some time / Days??

  • @essenceofarts Thanks for the feedback. If/when using this technique on fabric, you should use GAC900 as an additive to both the base into which you're making the transfer and a protective coat over the transfer. You will heatset this acrylic before laundering and it will enhance durability, we have a video just on that product that can be found either on YT or in the video library on the Golden site.

  • I'm sorry, I might have missed this but can you use a colored laser print? Thanks.

  • @MHPhotography722 - you would have to experiment to see if it works. This video only demonstrates a transfer using black heat-set toner, there are other videos (by other users of our products) demonstrating techniques using color. Also, Golden makes a Digital Ground that will allow you to print color inkjet on acrylic skins. So there are color options.

  • Instead of just laying the photo on the canvas, seems like if you wrapped it around a cardboard tube (like one for wrapping paper or a large cardboard mailing tube), you could slowly roll it out and it would minimize the air bubbles. I do this when applying photos or posters to sticky board.

  • @GoldenPaints so it doesn't necessarily have to be an architect laser printer? Just a laser printer at kinko's will do?

  • NICE!
