Oh that is so awesome to hear. It is not that easy the first time. There are still some frustrations here and there but all in all, the result is awesome. Good luck!
It's really just experimentation and lots of research. Some printers might print darker than it should be. So, you need have a few extras shrink sheets for testing. I'll make a video about this to explain more :)
@@sarahseptiana8092 yes. Print on the non glossy side. I can’t remember the temp, maybe you can try 160 degrees. Start at a low temperature because different ovens work differently. Then bump it up if you think the shrinking is too slow. For the duration, I waited till it uncurled then I quickly take it out to flatten it.
Hi, could you tell me what printer you used? I already have a inkjet printer but the printer can't take the thic paper... 😢 so i want to buy a new printer but can't find any info on what type i should buy. Thanks in advance and nice vid!
Canon MB5170 Inkjet Printer. This printer is massive. Mainly for office use. But I suggest you search for printers that can take in papers that are thicker than 300gsm. I hope this helps :)
I used a printable shrink plastic, it depends on your country, I got mine online in Singapore, the link is in my description. If you don’t have a printer, you can just draw and cut it, make sure to leave some space to punch a hole if you want to make it into a keychain. I hope this helps.
I have used both but I prefer the white one. For the translucent one, I had to paint the back part. It works better as a keychain not for pins and magnets.
@@nuffypuffy thank you! This is exactly what I worry about the transluscent one as the color might not come out solid like the one in the white shrink film
Of course you can! I'd prefer natural UV aka the SUN. Sometimes, mine turned out super sticky when I use the UV lamp. Maybe coz it didn't go long enough or my UV resin is not up to quality.
If you are using UV resin, put a layer first then add another layer just for the magnet and make sure you hold the magnet while using the UV light, otherwise it will keep sliding around. I hope this helps!
