A video on how to metallic foil laminated printing using the foil sleeking method. Also known as toner foiling, foil stamping or digital foiling. My print business: www.mangoprint... Print studio based in Maidstone, Kent, United Kingdom.
Hello, Could you share with us what brand of printable soft-touch laminating film is used in the process of sleeking? Thank you for the video this is very educational
I am having trouble getting a good foil print on the edges. Do you know what could be the issue for not getting straight lines when applying the foil? It sticks well, however the edges are not great. Thanks!
@@ChrisCorkPhotography Thank you for replying! I am trying to print some letters with foil. I did the same process of printing, then laminating, then printing on top the lamination, then laminated the foil to get the letters with foil. When removing the piece of foil from the print, it seems that in some points of the edges of the letters do not adhere correctly or perfectly; the body of the letter adheres OK, but the edges seem to be missing some points of foil, almost imperceptible to the eye. Could it be the foil? Or the ink? Or the laminating machine? I used a small and simple hot roller laminating machine and not worked great, then I tried a simple low budget amazon laminating machine and worked a little better. If I want to have a perfect foil print, what do I need?
@@bernardorubio3 Hmm, not sure, I've only tried laminating letterheads once and it was a bit of a nightmare but without laminate the foil is patchy on anything other than coated stock. Increased pressure could help. Maybe run some at 95 degrees and some at 110 to see if it is a temperature problem also ie too hot or too cold
