Re: Super Clean Degreaser to remove lettering
What brand and model of printer do you use? I looked on the HP web site, but didn’t find any mention of a ghost white printer, must black and white and color. I have a LaserJet 1200, which is pretty

Re: Clover House Chalk Marks (An Alternative)
Peter, I can't help you with this problem but as an alternative I recommend using Prismacolor Verithin (not regular Prismacolor) art pencils. I've conducted several 'hands-on" chalk marking clinics

Re: Printing White Decals was Super Clean Degreaser to remove lettering
This is my hobby. I couldn’t make enough at decals to compete with my day job. I have done special runs for friends at cost and supported the Carolina RPM with the Southern vent boxcar, but have no

Re: Super Clean Degreaser to remove lettering
Nelson,
The Ghost White is a cartridge that replaces the black. I can switch. I gave a clinic at the Greensberg, PA RPM on the Ghost White. I plan to give it at Winston-Salem’s Carolina RPM

Re: Clover House Chalk Marks
I have found when using British dry print transfers that have dried out methylated spirit helps them to adhere to any matt or gloss surface.

Clover House Chalk Marks
In my experience, CDS dry transfers seem to have problems with applications over gloss (Such as Accu-Paint). Dull coat makes it workable. I agree that a slight warming helps the transfer material

Obviously must depend on storage conditions. I've used transfers 25+ years old with very

Re: Clover House Chalk Marks
Tim,
Peter is using dry transfers, not decals 😉 In my experience, dry transfers work equally well over both gloss or flat.

Re: Doors with inside detail
After potting around with this for a few weeks, I finally got a good result. I tried several ways of pressing aluminum foil on the outside of the door, but nothing would get the detail to show

Re: Super Clean Degreaser to remove lettering
A word of warning. One of the reasons that Accurail makes no recommendation for a product to selectively remove lettering is over the past thirty years we have used paint from at least a dozen

Re: Clover House Chalk Marks
Dry transfers eventually go bad. They are sticky ink printed on wax paper; pressing them against another surface causes the ink to stick to the surface better than it sticks to the wax, and it
