I want to start a nail decal business & I love this ! Super easy idea!

[@pearlaudelo1366]

Update: I started my business and its easier & cheaper to buy the water decals in bulk then to make them. This would be awesome for a personal sticker.

[@pricillamontgomery1309]

@pearl audelo Did you run into licensing issues? I was so excited to start making my own decals but thought about licensing issues and realized a lot of images are protected by copyright and it’s SUPER expensive to buy the rights. :(

[@victoriag5714]

Pricilla Montgomery for designs i recommend buying procreate it’s $10 in the app store and you can draw or trace the images

Wow awesome

[@PorscheAndAzalia]

So how do u place it on your nails properly if theyre already on your fingers(no pressons)?

[@SadlerUpNails]

Cut the decal to shape your nail first then apply it the same way. I fine they are easier to put on real nails!

[@liyannn6130]

Very useful video ☺️ do you know how to make stickers that have a slight relief on top

[@rheamajumder]

Hi, thank you for uploading such a useful video😍 can i use regular transparent labe sheets? I can't find water decal sheets here.

[@daniieyell8230]

Hiii thank you so much for this detailed video and description! Just a quick question, I'm wondering do you cut around the edge afterwards or do you have to peel it off ???

[@Tifanieann]

File around the edges

[@Celesteee.221]

I came across your channel and omg thank you soooo much for the info super useful and easy to follow. I have a question when I do print out the sticker and I put the sticker in the water and take it out the sticker slides off perfect but It comes out clear like almost transparent and I doing something wrong in the printing stage

[@SadlerUpNails]

So there’s two types of decal paper, transparent and white. In this video I used white paper which I personally prefer, my customers however only ever order their decals on transparent.

[@SadlerUpNails]

I think I’m going to do a video showing both so you can see the difference!

[@Zemuogyte13]

How do you avoid wrinkles? "Y" looked wrinkly on STEADY. But at the end it looks great. When I bought paper and printed - it ended up being really thick and impossible to even out. And when there are image wrinkles, they are visible on very curved nail, like narrow stiletto.

[@jeanettebarr1282]

Thanks so much for sharing bless you. Can you use word off your mobile phone and use a wireless printer do you know?

[@SadlerUpNails]

I don’t know, I’ve never tried that.

[@imanirei]

Girllllll you ate! Thank you so much! Does it need clear acrylic on top to encapsulate?

[@SadlerUpNails]

Yes you need to seal it. Acrylic or top coat will work.

[@LuverofMyLordJesus]

How do you get them tostick to acrylic. My nail tech did it then put gel on top. Lifted and ugly the next day n worse after

[@uniquelypurplefx]

I have a question. I tried the transparent paper and followed your steps, but when it printed out the ink seem to leak. Did it leak or not dry properly for you?

I just found this video! I have been loving water decals for my nails and have been thinking about making my own. This video is great and informative. Question… why do you use the spray? What does it do?

[@SadlerUpNails]

The spray seals the ink. Otherwise it will bleed in the water.

No, for the foil ones you need to use a laser printer that uses black toner.

[@videokidz007]

once it is sprayed with the krylon kamar can it be bent around c curve of nail without cracking? I tried using the crystal clear and it cracked. I ended up using the Wet & Wild clear nail polish, let it dry then put it water. It will even stretch some. No cracking around the c curve.

[@SadlerUpNails]

I’ve never experienced cracking with the Kamar Varnish

[@crystalnicklaus7779]

Is the spray matte or shiny? And could I use clear paper or is white better?

[@kwildernurse]

is the krylon acrylic coating the same as the krylon varnish? I have the acrylic coating but my decals keep tearing so easily when trying to apply to my nails

[@SadlerUpNails]

I think they are different products. The Krylon Varnish doesn't say it's acrylic at all.

[@KateLloyd128]

My decals are coming out really stiff and difficult to apply…do you have any suggestions? I’ve tried both clear and white waterslide paper.

[@jasminemznewell17]

What size is the image

[@jaytbabyy]

You definitely just changed the game for me ❤🫶🏻

[@sweet_cynth]

Is there an alternative for Kamar Varnish? I’m having a hard time finding that exact brand near me.

[@SadlerUpNails]

There are others. You’d have to test them to see what works best. Basically any craft varnish should work.

[@karmeshamason950]

OMGEEEE you are my heroine😍😍😍😍. I'm never gonna run out of characters and other fun things to put on me and my clients nails. Quick question, does the glossy side go face up or down in the printer??

[@raquelfreeman81]

Ty so much for this. U made it so easy to follow n I feel I can now do this myself thanks to you. I know my names will be fire now, I subscribed to you because of this.

Girl plz help- how do u clean up the edges of the decals so well?! I’ve made some really dope decals just havin trouble getting them on the nail perfectly, thanks for ur help. 😊

[@uni5956]

Cut lil slits all around the edges that way the transfer is more flexible.

Do we have to reverse the text images before printing? Tks

[@GlitterGlamNailsOakham]

How do u get rid of a white background so it’s clear?

[@SadlerUpNails]

There’s 2 types of decal paper. White and transparent. I used white in this video.

[@ShayLuvHair]

Fabulous!!! Is there a link to the paper???

[@SadlerUpNails]

I get it from amazon Canada but it’s Hayes Paper Co. water slide paper for inkjet.

[@PinupBishh]

❤️🥰❤️🥰 Thank you!!

[@JulieCorrell]

This is all great and everything but after making a bunch of them and they did turn out very nice I found that they are not waterproof and the minute they get wet the waterslide wrap comes right off and the topcoat pells right off, the wrap actually comes off even when they don't get wet. I tried them myself and they didn't even last an hour. Is there a way to make them waterproof? I am looking to sell these and I can't sell them if they don't last ten minutes. Is there a way to use vinyl that would wrap around the nails?

[@SadlerUpNails]

I’m not sure what you mean. They are activated by water, if they were water proof they wouldn’t work!

[@SadlerUpNails]

I have never had them peel off the nails once sealed with top coat!

[@JulieCorrell]

@@SadlerUpNails that is interesting. I cannot get the topcoat to not peel off. Once it gets wet it comes right off and exposes the waterslide. How many coats of topcoat do you add?

Wait how did you make it smooth at the end lol 😂

whats the standard size you use for a full wrap??

[@peachcampanella]

Is the Krylon step necessary? I was thinking of trying but I don't really have an open space readily available to spray aerosol varnish.

[@SadlerUpNails]

Yes, it seals in the ink.

[@grandmimm]

Is there something else I can use in place of the Krylon varnish, can I use modge podge

[@SadlerUpNails]

I’m not sure about modge podge but you can just use nail polish top coat.

[@Findsomethinsafe2do]

You can use modge podge clear glossy spray. Spray 3 coats 15 minutes apart. Let dry for 2 hours.
