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
