tid bit

[Steelhorse]

Hey everyone!!! I came across this little tid bit of info today...I haven't tried it yet but will put it out anyway. Take some transfer tape and apply it your printer paper (I think the photo stock stuff would probably work better). Print out your design. No need to draw out your design on the tape. Anyone here done this???

i had heard that before also ...tried it with transfer tape on photo paper but it tore up ( couldnt reuse the transfer tape)......but i think its done with some other type of tape( not transfer tape) but i dont know what it called......try it out and give us some news i just know it did not work for me

Its a very good idea,
but you risk a serious paper jam
if the pre mask lifts and gets caught
and possibly alot of damage to your printer.

I would be very careful doing that.

I don't get it. Isn't the masking already on a backing?

It works on paint mask material,,,
just cut it down to the 8 1/2x11
as the printer paper !!!
Drawback,,, you're limited to the
small size for an image !!!

Clem - Premask comes on a roll....no backing paper.

Whit - unless you have a 6 foot printer!
I could print BIG stuff on premask!
But I ain't riskin' a $30,000 printer doing that! LOL

I can however, print images onto Vinyl Paint mask
but usually I just cut stencils with that stuff.

$30,000 here,,, $30,000 there,,,,,
pretty soon,,, you're talkin good money !!!
