We offer toner-based printing and stock PERFECT to use with your own home foiling machine like the Heidi Swapp Minc Foil applicator.
Here is how to get the best results possible with your Minc Foiler:
1. Create your design in RICH BLACK: C:100 | M:100 |Y:100 | K:100
2. Have our Printery print your job on MILKSHAKE 308gsm, MARSHMALLOW Crisp/Warm White or one of our GLAMOUR PUSS colours - our professional digital presses will put down a lot more toner than your home printer, which is one of the (BIG) secrets.
3. Order enough ‘testing’ overs.
4. Test heat settings 2, 3 or 4, following the directions that come with the machine.
5. Different brands and batches of foil might deliver different results or need different settings...
6. If you want some areas left as digital black (or whatever colour), you'll need to cover them with baking paper or the toner will transfer to the carrier sheet.
7. Peel off the foil
P.S. Some laminators (quality laminators that can produce enough heat and pressure) work too.
NOTE: Home-use foil DOES NOT work on uncoated paper stocks, which is why we only recommend the above paper stocks.
