How It Works

Dry rub transfers are applied by placing the image face-down on your surface and rubbing with pressure using a stick, ruler, or stylus. The heat and pressure activate the adhesive, allowing your design to stick cleanly to the surface while the backing is peeled away. This makes it perfect for delicate details, sharp edges, and easy DIY application.

How to Use – Step-by-Step

1. Step 1: Choose or design your artwork. Flip the text if needed so it reads correctly after transfer.
2. Step 2: Load the frosted glossy sheet into your printer with the printable (glossy) side facing up.
3. Step 3: Print your image using your inkjet or laser printer. Let it dry completely.
4. Step 4: Cut out the printed image from the frosted sheet.
5. Step 5: Cut a piece of adhesive liner slightly larger than your image. Remove the backing to expose the adhesive.
6. Step 6: Carefully place the adhesive on top of your dry printed image and press them together.
7. Step 7: Use the craft stick to burnish and fully bond the two layers.
8. Step 8: Peel away the liner—your image is now sticky and ready to apply.
9. Step 9: Position the sticky image on your surface and rub it down firmly with the stick to transfer the design.
10. Step 10: Slowly peel away the final film to reveal your transferred image cleanly on the surface.

FAQs

Q: Can I use these with my home printer?
Yes, these sheets are compatible with both inkjet and laser printers. Just print on the frosted glossy film side.

Q: Do I need any special software?
Nope! Use any graphics program to design your decal. Just remember to flip the image if it contains text.

Q: Can this be used on curved or textured surfaces?
Flat, smooth surfaces yield the best results. For gentle curves like ceramic pots or jars, rub-on decals still work well.

Q: How permanent is the rub-on?
Once transferred, the decal is pressure-sensitive and fairly durable. For outdoor or high-use items, consider sealing with a top coat.

Q: Can I reposition the image once placed?
Unfortunately, no. Once pressed, it’s permanent—make sure your placement is accurate before rubbing.
