If painted, make sure it’s well cured, and if you have sanded the paint make certain there is no residual dust. All of these things will interfere with adhesion. For best adhesion, seal your project surface with a high quality, water-based\u003cbr\u003epolyurethane sealer in matte before applying a transfer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarefully remove the transfer from its white backing. Slowly and carefully lower the transfer onto your intended surface, making sure that it does not touch until the placement is correct. Use small pieces of low tack tape to hold it in place.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUsing the provided tool, or one of your choice, start at one end of the transfer and rub firmly to adhere the image to the surface. Do this until the entire image is transferred. You are welcome for the free arm workout as well. If any parts aren’t transferred when you lift, simply lay it back down and rub more on that portion. After it is transferred, with a clean dry hand, smooth down any bits that aren’t flatly adhered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eLooking for the WHOLE Iron Orchid Designs Catalog?\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/mamabearblue.com\/collections\/iron-orchid-designs\" title=\"Iron Orchid Designs Collection Page\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eCLICK HERE!\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe recommend sealing with a \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Big Top Top Coat\" href=\"https:\/\/mamabearblue.com\/products\/diy-big-top-liquid-top-coat\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewater based (or not harsh\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"Big Top Top Coat\" href=\"https:\/\/mamabearblue.com\/products\/diy-big-top-liquid-top-coat\" target=\"_blank\"\u003esolvent based) sealer\u003c\/a\u003e OR \u003ca rel=\"noopener\" title=\"DIY Clear Wax\" href=\"https:\/\/mamabearblue.com\/products\/diy-clear-wax\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewaxes created for chalk-based paints\u003c\/a\u003e also work well if they don’t contain harsh solvents).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iron Orchid Designs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51661150748993,"sku":"IOD-TRA-FER","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0265\/5512\/1767\/files\/fernfables1.webp?v=1776969335","url":"https:\/\/mamabearblue.com\/products\/fern-fables-8-x-12-transfer-pad","provider":"Mama Bear Blue LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
