How To Use IOD Gilded Foil Transfers

Preparation:

IOD Gilded transfers can be applied to various surfaces with the right preparation. For optimal adhesion, seal painted or porous surfaces with a satin or semi-gloss sealer and allow it to dry completely before applying your Gilded transfer.

Instructions:

If you are familiar with traditional IOD transfers, you'll find that these apply in a similar manner. However, areas with fine detail might require a bit more patience. Take your time and apply the usual amount of pressure—pressing harder can actually hinder the release of the transfer rather than help it.

1. Carefully select and cut out your transfer pieces, ensuring to keep the protective backing material attached to the transfer.2. Position the transfer piece over the surface, hovering to find the perfect placement.
3. Place the transfer on the surface (optional: secure corners with low grip tape).
4. Using the provided tool, start at one corner and rub with firm, even pressure to adhere the transfer. Continue across the design until fully adhered. If any part of the design doesn't transfer, lay the sheet back down and rub more in that area.
5. Remove the sheet and smooth any loose areas with your clean, dry hand. Burnish firmly with a clean soft cloth for maximum adhesion. You can leave it as is or gently distress with fine sandpaper.
6. Once applied, seal with two topcoats of a water-based sealer, such as DIY Big Top to enhance durability.

Bonus:

After using your gilded transfer designs, save the spent sheets. They can be reused with gold leaf adhesive size to showcase the negative design. Follow the adhesive size manufacturer’s instructions. When the adhesive is tacky but not wet, apply your IOD Gilded scrap to the surface, and use the burnishing tool to press until the design adheres.

Pro Tips:

Keep the Transfer Protected: Ensure the transfer stays with its protective backing until ready for application. Avoid dust or debris as they interfere with adhesion. Do not allow the adhesive side to touch anything before application. Avoid windy environments to prevent the adhesive side from touching itself.
Storage:  Store transfers in a stable environment; extreme temperatures or humidity can affect adhesion.
Surface Preparation:  The recommended surface should be clean, dry, and flat. If applying to a painted surface, ensure the paint is fully cured and free of residual moisture. For chalky or mineral-based paints, seal the surface with water-based polyurethane before applying the transfer.
Sealing:  When sealing over a transfer, avoid strong solvent-based topcoats as they can affect the bond.
Usage Conditions:  Not suitable for outdoor use or constant direct sunlight, which can cause fading and degradation of the transfer image.
Surface Stability:  Any unstable surface can cause paint to pull when applying pressure to the transfer. This is an adhesion issue with the surface finish, so ensure the foundation surface is well-prepared and any paint or finish is bonded well to its substrate.

**Winter Shipping Advisory regarding DIY PAINT**

DIY Paint is a water-based paint that can be damaged if allowed to freeze. During the winter season, I am very selective in how and when I ship your paint orders.

Route Protection is mandatory for the shipment of all DIY Paint and Products.

In some cases, depending upon your location, you may be contacted for additional shipping when Priority Mail charges exceed standard shipping costs.

If the temperatures in your area are below freezing, you are fully responsible for bringing your paint inside immediately upon delivery to avoid freezing.
