WHAT'S NOT IN THE KIT, but absolutely MUST have...

Please note that the "DecalPRO kit" does not include a couple of very important items you must have before you can start making decals!  These components are not included in the starter kit because of the possibility you might already have one or more of these items to hand. Here's what you will need to obtain before you can start.


Laser Printer.

It is not strictly necessary to own a laser printer, but you will need access to a laser copier which as a minimum will print black & white images,  naturally a colour printer is much better.

 

If you own a laser printer then that's great, but if you don't you could check to see if a friend has one.   Failing that you could use one of the many copier services on the high street.  Simply print your file on your inkjet printer and take it along for copying with your TTS paper. 


GBC branded laminator.

These laminators are not your standard run-of-the-mill "pouch laminator".  They are different because of the way the heat is transferred to the rollers.  Most laminators don't actually heat the rollers in the first place, and those that do, don't do it very well. It is imperative that a GBC laminator is used for this process. All other brands will not give satisfactory results.

 

In the UK there are only two model that are suitable for DecalPro®.  Even though there are two models, the best one for the job is the cheaper model, so I am only going to recommend the one model.

The HGB HeatSeal H65 A4 Laminator.

The Laminator can be purchased from reputable Shops and good online stationers.  They are also available on eBay frequently!


Decorators Heat Gun.

The last item you will need is a conventional "hot air gun" normally used by the DIY enthusiast for paint stripping etc.  As such they are available from all of the major DIY stores and some high street shops.  This item is not as critical in brand as the laminator, but please look for a model that has at least a 1200 watt heating element.

 

There is no need to purchase a big brand name, any generic heater with the minimum heating element specification should be fine.  And don't think a standard hair drier will manage the task - it won't!


Other smaller items that you will need to use the product are:

• Rubbing Alcohol: Available at any drug or hardware store

• Water Tray: Must be as large or larger than the largest graphic you will be making

• Paper Towel

• Sharp modelling knife

• Straight-edge ruler

• Paper cutter
