Oh, that stinks!! I'm sorry it didn't give you and your daughter better results. At least you're laughing about it. 😁

Oh, I never thought of coloring the water with Brusho, too - great idea! Have fun with the Aquacast 😊😊

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions it's arriving tomorrow I wanted to try Pixie Powders but can't find them anywhere 😀

Great question, I’m not sure. Let me go take a look.👀

Well, it does indeed seem like Hiipoo has migrated to strictly sublimation supplies, no more waterslide paper. Huh! Okay, well, my second-favorite waterslide paper is Sunnyscopa. And they’re still selling inkjet waterslide paper. Remember to get the inkjet version even though you’ll print it with a laser printer. amzn.to/3yUY7iv

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions fab thanks for the new supplier! :)

Well, I certainly don’t want you to risk your printer for this, but I will say I did this process (inkjet waterslide paper printed on a laser printer with black toner) many times and never had an issue. In all honesty, the potential problem you’re describing never even occurred to me. But that’s still no guarantee - you’ll need to make that decision.

Thanks so much! And welcome 🤗

Thank you! They probably aren’t food safe, although I think the Aqua Cast one would be if sealed with a food-safe sealer like beeswax. However they can both hold wrapped foods no problem for a display of cookies or candy, etc.😊

And yes, I think I did use a clip of Colbert in there 😁

@LuxindasOtherObsessions Thank you for that. Can't wait to try Aqua Cast. I might love the fact that it cures in a short span of time. 👍

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions 😂

Makes it a lot easier to get ahold of here in the US 😁

I would think so. You can foil pretty much any paper product that will go through a laminator, so a letter or an envelope (or both) should work fine. Good luck!

Oooh, that should be awesome!!

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions Thank you. I will demold it tomorrow 🙂

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions Are you still making resin projects?

@@ParanormalGirl5 I still work with resin, but I stopped making RUclips videos about a year ago.

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions Aww no. I have my channel here on the paranormal but I mostly make resin things these days.

No I haven’t, but that’s a great idea!!

The best way I’ve found to not have waterslide edges show (or not show much) is to fix the waterslide image after you print it or foil it with a couple layers of Plastidip Glossifier spray. Once dry, trim as close to the image as possible and apply them to a shiny flat surface. So if you want to apply the waterslide directly onto a painted tumbler, use a gloss spray paint on the tumbler, or (even though it takes longer) apply a layer of resin first then apply the waterslide once the resin hardens. Hopefully this helps. It can take some experimenting to find the best method for you.

Thanks!😊

That’s great! Good idea 😊

Before watching these videos. I had always thought we could use eyeshadow pigments. Did it work for You?

@@rosalbalourdesleos4893Sure, I know a lot of folks use metallic eyeshadows crushed up, because they’re made from pressed micas. Are they all exactly the same quality? I honestly don’t know. But if something works for you, that’s great!

@@rosalbalourdesleos4893 Yes

Thanks - it turned out very pretty!

Thank you! That’s a great question, but I’m not entirely sure since I didn’t do any further research beyond this point. My guess is that there are other liquids you can use, so you may have to check out some more RUclips videos by people who are more familiar with the technique than I am and can recommend substitutes.

Thank you ​@@LuxindasOtherObsessions

Oh no! I honestly don’t remember too much about this particular situation, but maybe your kit somehow got short-changed on materials. About the only thing I remember is how strong the bleach fumes were 😵‍💫 Thank you for watching!!

I’m always looking for new ways to use Brusho crystals - love playing with them (I’m very easily amused). Thanks for watching! 😊

Right?! They really are pretty! Thanks for watching 😊

Thank you! 😄

Is there any substitute of arabic gum?

@@user-tf5is7lm1r For Watercolor, No.

Hi! Sorry to hear that. The time I tried it and got that same result as you, I was using a waterslide paper that was rated for both inkjet and laser printers, thinking that would be great cuz I could use it for pretty much any type of waterslide I needed. But the foil stuck to the entire sheet. 🤬 However, if that’s not what you used. If you used waterslide paper specifically for inkjet printers in your laser printer, then that’s a little trickier to figure out. I would try getting a different brand of inkjet waterslide paper and see if that solves the problem. Another possibility is that somehow too much laser toner got onto the waterslide paper when you printed, and the foil basically stuck to everything. If you have a color laser printer, try printing with your printer set to monotone black (if that’s an option in your printer settings). Color laser printers make black by using all of the toner colors, so it’s not really a true black and might mess things up a bit. I’m sorry don’t have a more definitive solution, but see if a different brand of inkjet waterslide decal paper helps, and please come back and let us know!

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions thank you for your input, I used laser printer waterslide paper. I will try using inkjet paper in the laser printer

Ohhhh, ok, yes, that’s definitely the problem. It has to be inkjet waterslide paper, because waterslide paper made for laser printers is too sticky when it’s heated up with the foil, so - as you found out - the foil sticks to the entire thing. If you rewatch this video at about the 1:19 minute mark, I do say that it has to be inkjet waterslide paper that you use in a laser printer. That’s the key. So you should be all set then. Good luck 😊

Did you see Louise singleton’s latest video on black for aqua cast? ruclips.net/video/1AO6yla5chw/видео.htmlsi=B0SLlf0wwZn5H_NB

Oh I feel your lack-of-black pain 🖤 this is definitely a downfall for what is otherwise an awesome casting product. Because I’m in the US and getting items from Eli-chem in the UK is pricey, I still haven’t tried their black colorant. I hope you find the magic black!!

@@LuxindasOtherObsessionsIf i do i'll tell you straight away and end your suffering ;+}

@@LuxindasOtherObsessionsApparently iron oxide might work, it does for concrete. I have a bag of iron oxide from my days of making custom magnets, just have to find it now.

Good luck!!

@@LuxindasOtherObsessionsCan't find mine so ordered some, i'll ping you when i've uploaded a video doing it, so many people have the same problem.

You're welcome - thank you for watching!😊😊

Yeah, I know that’s a real problem for folks with creating this particular type of waterslide. The one workaround that another viewer suggested is to put your graphic print file(s) onto a flash or thumb drive, and take that plus some of the inkjet waterslide paper to a business service place like Kinkos. They can print your graphics onto the waterslide paper using their laser copier, which uses the same black toner. Then you take those prints home and do the foiling yourself with a laminator or minc foiling machine. It’s obviously more work but quite a bit cheaper than buying a laser printer.

Thank you! Isn’t it great stuff to work with?? Honestly, after trying a bunch of different things like Brusho crystals, acrylic inks, acrylic paints, mica powder, alcohol ink, etc, I think the best colorants are the ones made specifically for Aqua Cast by eli-chem or similar casting compound colorants like for Jesmonite. If you find anything better, let me know 😁

Thank you!😊

Thank you so much!😊

Thanks - I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Definitely give it a go and have fun testing out the blending possibilities.

@@LuxindasOtherObsessionsyou very welcome..🤗 thanks so much and I will👍🏿😁🥰

Thank you - I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊

Unfortunately, it won’t. The thing that the foil sticks to is the black laser toner. Another option is to have a thumbnail drive with your design saved on it and take it to a place like Kinkos where they can print it out on a laser copier so you’ll have it printed with the correct toner.

Thank you!!

LOL! Me trying not to scream 😅 Thanks for watching!!

Thank you!! Lefties, unite! 😁

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you! I think the only paints I’ve bought that were better (in my very limited experience) were the Coliro pearl watercolor paints made in Germany amzn.to/3vfCNlR

Thank you - I’m glad you enjoyed it!!😊

They are really cool! 🥰

Sounds great!

@@LuxindasOtherObsessions the floetrol works great , only good if kept in a closed jar , will not reconstitute with water but makes great paint ! but when I mixed glycerin and mica together it didn’t dry on the paper or on the pallet overnight I think that’s why some use the gum Arabic and rubbing alcohol when making their watercolors

@@ambermartin1117 very interesting - thank you for doing the testing and sharing your results!

Thanks for your comment! I didn’t have too much roller mark trouble, plus, since I wasn’t thrilled with this DTF hack, I basically stopped using it. So I’m not really able to give you a good answer. I believe Angie Holden has done at least one video about getting rid of printer roller marks, so you might check her channel youtube.com/@AngieHolden?si=RpqWWl3L8ENG8kVB

Thanks for watching! 😁😁
