Hand Sanitizer Inkjet Photo Transfer

A simple inkjet photo transfer process using hand sanitizer to release the image from the DASS ART transfer film

[@kimberlylorrainebradford474]

While I love your results I too am confused by this demonstration. Most of us would not be transferring anything onto paper when we could just print it out. What we really need is demonstrations for this method onto less obvious items...wood, CANVAS, glass, tile, etc

[@bonnylhotka]

Go to www.vimeo.com/dassart for many other transfer process to lots of different material using SuperSauce and WonderSauce

[@heleneblaauw2928]

Hi Normally you can only do transfers with a laser printer, but by using this method you now can transfer pics with an inkjet as well!

[@indiandy03]

Fantastic, really love the effect. It was asked why transfer a image onto paper when you could just print directly onto the paper. For me I think it produces an effect your would not get if you just printed onto the paper. It has the feel and look of a lithograph plus you can print with an A4 printer and transfer the image onto a larger sheet giving the image a nice mount. The quality you achieve is some of the very best I have seen.

[@bonnylhotka]

Because th inks stays on the surface during a transfer and is richer in color.

[@rinaldorido8768]

halooo bonny,im from indonesia..can you make tutorial video how to make perfect transfer image to pine wood with this metode?pleasee

[@collagehouse]

This technique has really inspired me. Can’t wait to try it. It reminds me of my days experimenting while I was in art school for fine art photography.

[@Kalides]

this will only work with pigment inks?

[@bonnylhotka]

You must use pigment inks.

[@cherylhudson5080]

Hi Bonnie quick question maybe I missed I watched it twice I was wondering why did you put the sanitizers on both sides of the arches paper I really enjoyed your tips but need to ask why thanks in advance cheers from Australia.

[@dmitribovski1292]

I'm a little confused don't Inkjet's print onto paper without the need to be transferred ?

[@ericking3901]

Dmitri Bovski because you can’t run any type of paper through inkjet. It has to be inkjet coated paper. This allows you to put an image on any type of paper.

[@music-sc7eg]

yes they do print on plain paper but it will just be a print unlike when you use, e.g., photo paper which is coated which may be hhe same thing as Eric mentions.

[@lorricarnevale8764]

@@darrellm8769 Y you are not running the paper but the film through your inkjet printer

[@rachelnicklaus9366]

PLEASE! no alcohol on rubber or urathane brayers!!!! It WILL ruin a good brayer! BAD! Naughty.

[@bonnylhotka]

Hand sanitizer never has never ruined my Speedball brayers. You can alway lay a piece of mylar over the print then brayer the image if you are worried.

[@TPToE]

Many thanks for the video! How did you create the smeared frame edges in the image at 9:40? Is this process particular to Dass Art transfer film, or will it work with any inkjet transparencies (as I'm not sure if Dass Art film is available where I am)?

[@bonnylhotka]

It doe require the DASS ART Dual Film

[@ejay770]

I can't wait to try this process! Thank you for the clear, concise instructions.

[@WienArtist]

Do you think this process would work for Bible journaling? I am trying to find a successful way to transfer images from my Canon ink jet printer onto my Bible pages. Do you have any other suggestions?

[@grussem]

Is there something I can apply over the image once it's dry to make it archival?

[@mlabash]

There's an "Advanced" Purell out now. Does that work as well?

[@ponygecko]

How did you print the image? Did you put it through a computer printer, and if so, did you use a laser or an inkjet printer? Beautiful. Thank you.

[@shanayork4403]

it says inkjet in the title

[@janesmith7542]

Could this be done on canvas ? Thank you for sharing.

[@pays1zebu]

wow ! incroyable ! super and i love so much the result :) thank you

[@westbranchgrassman7004]

if the large film sheet was put threw a printer why not just run the paper threw it. looks like a lot of work for very little payoff.

[@TheSafecrkr1]

Hi Bonnie. I just happened upon your channel, I'm amazed at your great results. By the way, could this process be done using the shiny side of the backing paper left over after printing shipping labels ? It probably works with laser printers, but what about inkjet printers ?

[@bonnylhotka]

It is only done with the DASS ART TransferFilm that has a special coating that hold the inkjet print and thy release on the SuperSauce or WonderSauce.

[@colourfab]

@@bonnylhotka Love the result! Where do we get the Dass Art Transfer Film? Can it be used repeatedly? Also, what is Super Sauce or Wonder Sauce? TIA

[@bonnylhotka]

@@colourfab Buy the Film on DASSART.com. It cannot be reused because the coating on the film moves with the image

Bonny, thank you for the "transfer" of techniques. I am a Spanish artist in the last part of my oeuvre, I am 79. I paint, have an etching studio, use photography plus digital transformation, prepare my new work in Procreate before creating the real work to what ever medium. My question for you, (because I have a collage that I would like to transfer on to arches to images to include in the collage. 1) is there an art material supplier that carries your family of transfer products? 2) Have started a project to purchase an archival type glicée printer. Will archival inks of Epson, Canon, or HP be ok on your transfer film? 3) If there is no distributor for your products' family in Spain is there one in Europe and/or UK? If not will you ship to me in Spain? Thank you in advance for the time you impart to my inquiries Regards emile michel

You can use inkjet prints with other films

[@bonnylhotka]

No I only works with the DASS Film.

[@brianbussard2060]

do you have a process. for transfer film on glass

[@bonnylhotka]

Yes. The SuperSauce transfer is fantastic on glass. www.vimeo.com/dassart

[@Bright-It]

I am confused, too. As I can print in watercolor paper at home, what are other surfaces can Transfer film + Purell process be used on?

[@TPToE]

What printer did you use for these prints? I've tried printing onto the transfer film with a Canon Pixma, but the resulting transparencies don't have the same depth of black.

[@bonnylhotka]

You need to use a printer with pigment inks and photo black inks. Dye inks will not work.

[@darrellm8769]

If you soak the paper in water for about 15 minutes, then wipe off excess water, you probably wouldn’t need to use so much Purell gel.

[@nasrihanna2292]

great work. please can you till me if we can transfer the Image on wood .hard board or other kind and if so can you till me what kind of paint can i use over the transfer image ... oil color or water color­

[@dinoilcagnolino3213]

Do you think this method will work on wood?

[@bonnylhotka]

No it will not.

[@hajmanek]

Thanks for sharing This technic, are you using some kind of top cover to protect final image?

[@nameissturdy1390]

I’m watching this in 2021 and you mentioned buying a 1/2 gallon at Amazon for classroom work if need be. It’s so strange, I mean who would have thought that hand sanitizer would be so elusive? Anyway thank you for the video!

[@berylvaughan]

I have tried this 2x now and each time the transfer pulls up paper with it or is not transferring evenly (random sections in the middle don't transfer.) I am using the DASS film and Arches 88 paper, and following the instructions faithfully. I use an Epson XP6000 with 302 Inkjet ink. I coat the paper on both sides and then back to the front again. I leave the image on first 1 minute, then 3. The photo has first dried after printing on the film over several days before I begin. Any thoughts? I use the brayer...I can attach a photo if you like.

[@bonnylhotka]

You printer uses dye inks. You must use all pigment inks.

[@berylvaughan]

@@bonnylhotka so i discovered i bought a new, pigment ink and with your advice to cover the transfer and leave for 10 minutes, all is well. Thank you!

[@BillizMuzic]

Im sorry what was the photo printed on prior to transfer. I watched couple times im not getting that part. Help?

[@bonnylhotka]

It is print on DASS ART Dual transfer film using a pigment inkjet printer like the Epson printers

[@dacoole]

Wonderful Work Thank You !

[@TheKatshe]

Just one question, can you reuse the film and if so how many times?

[@michellemondragon6935]

I tried this on wood and it worked great. How do I seal it?

[@ak47mouth64]

You used the Hand Sanitizer and it worked on wood? Did the ink transfer in a gray tone or completely black? Thank you!!!!!

[@ak47mouth64]

Also, did you use the Dass Art film? Sorry for all of the questions. I want to create keepsakes for my family using an image of my brother on wood

[@stprk]

Would that transfer works onto the linoleum?

[@CobraDove1111]

Is that a dead bird???How DISGUSTING. Why would anyone call that art?

[@heelturnsface]

Art can be anything, you mouth breathing, troglodyte. Curb your outrage.

[@bonnylhotka]

it is a photo composite image of birds feet.

[@bonnylhotka]

It is just a photo composite image

[@davidcope51]

Very interesting. Anyone know how archival is this type of printing is please? Is it a serious medium to be able to sell prints? Thank you so much for any info.

[@bonnylhotka]

If your used pigment inks it is archives for your life time.

Thanks very much. Makes sense. I don’t no why, but I was under the impression that only dye based inks could be used. Sorry, I don’t use Facebook. It’s almost like gravure but without the pressure 😀

Great tutorial Bonny! Just purchased your book. What is the best surface to use for direct printing or transferring images for non framed work? I mean what's the best scratch & dent resistant surface or material to use if I don't want to have my final artwork framed under the glass?

[@bonnylhotka]

Aluminum or wood.

[@lorricarnevale8764]

Can you reuse the film

[@TPToE]

Having listened again to the video, I realise you were saying you wiped the film with a wet paper towel to smear the edges - did this need to be done when the print was fresh, before the ink had dried?

[@bonnylhotka]

Ether way works

[@TPToE]

@@bonnylhotka Many thanks for your reply! How does the Dass transfer film differ from other inkjet transparencies? I've tried smearing those but without much success.

[@bonnylhotka]

I wonder why transfer a picture into another paper to became a picture can u tell me why?

[@pipkingdom]

For collages, so you dont damage the original..... maybe you want to distress it or put paint on it so you can choose a more workable surface!

[@chuckdunn302]

You can transfer to other surface like wood metal or glass. Arches 88 I think is about a 300gpi paper it may not travel well thur your printer. The biggest reason is aesthetics. This method may seam natural for you just like some people paint on a hard surface vs a canvas.

Will this work on wood?

No it will not. See dassart.com
