  • You killed that spot of grass!

  • @infinity69able Ha, I was about to mow it anyway :)

  • will nail polish remover work just as well for this?

  • @xLunarxEclipsx No, it won't-- and I tried it! Nail polish remover isn't pure acetone, so it isn't strong enough.

  • Can you use a regular brayer to rub the image out?

  • @cw3849 Sure, if you have one, it will work just fine :)

  • Much easier to do this with Golden Matte Fluid Medium, cost about $8.

  • be aware the acetone is a reducer, which means it can take all toxic elements and reduce them into your blood and lungs or through your fingers. always wear gloves and a respirator.

  • @xzerpolix I had that same problem when I tried that technique, it was frustrating! I like the acetone because it doesn't disintegrate the paper, it makes it kind of waxy... the ink floats off without sticking to the paper. I didn't need to sand the wood when doing the acetone technique.

  • I've being use a gel medium and modpodge, but my biggest problem is I don't get all the paper off the wood so it ends up looking and pulling pretty bad. Besides trying this; should I not sand the wood before I do the transfer?
