Transfer Printing on Mylar Using PVA or White Glue Presented by: Phyllis King and Teresa Foster 2015 NAEA National Convention New Orleans Step 1: Complete an image on a Mylar sheet with mixed-media mark-making tools listed in the handout.
Step 1: Complete an image on a Mylar sheet with mixed-media mark-making tools listed in the handout. Allow the image to dry.
Step 2: Tape Mylar sheet to smooth illustration or matte board. Step 3: Draw a line of glue across the smooth board at the top next to the blue painter’s tape.
Step 4: Fold the Mylar sheet over the board. Step 5: Squeegee the glue across the
- image. One pass pulling the glue down is
- best. One tight pass with the squeegee
helps to avoid wet pockets of glue. Clean excess glue off of the end of the board.
Step 6: When the glue is dry, pull up the Mylar sheet. You can use a hair dryer to speed up the drying process.
