Applying 3D transfer labels can sometimes be a bit tricky, and some of our clients have been experiencing difficulties. To help you achieve the best results, we've gathered some useful tips and tricks on how to use 3D transfer labels. Follow these simple steps to ensure a smooth and successful application process.
- Peel off the backing paper carefully: When preparing your 3D transfer label for application, make sure to peel off the backing paper from behind, rather than removing the clear film directly. Peeling off the transparent film first may cause the ink to break, which can ruin the design. Instead, slowly uncover the backing paper to ensure your 3D transfer label remains intact and ready for application.
- Firmly press the label: Once you've positioned your 3D transfer label on the desired surface, use your fingers to firmly press down on the label. This is especially important when using our magic transfer stickers, as applying pressure helps ensure that the ink and adhesive are successfully transferred to the surface. Take a few extra seconds to press down on the label for better adhesion.
- Allow the label to set: After applying the 3D transfer label to your product, let it sit for a while before peeling off the clear film. This allows the glue on the sticker to make full contact with the object and reach its maximum stickiness. By being patient and giving the label time to set, you'll ensure a strong bond and a long-lasting finish.
- Peel off the film carefully and slowly: When it's time to remove the clear film from your 3D transfer label, do so slowly and carefully. If you notice that some details are still stuck on the film, simply place the film back onto the label, press down on the affected areas, and try peeling it off again. This will help ensure that your design transfers completely and accurately.
- Mind the angle when peeling: As you peel off the clear film, pay attention to the angle at which you're pulling. Instead of tearing the film vertically, try tilting the angle of the film as you peel. This technique can help the label transfer more evenly and reduce the risk of tearing or damaging the design.
- Prepare glass surfaces: If you're applying a 3D transfer label to a glass surface and it won't stick, it might be due to a special coating on the glass designed to prevent dust. To address this, simply clean the glass with alcohol before applying the label. This will help the label adhere properly and ensure a strong bond.
- Store labels properly: If you don't plan to use your 3D transfer labels right away, be sure to store them correctly to maintain their quality. Keep the labels tightly sealed and avoid exposing them to sunlight or heat. However, we recommend using the labels within 6 months, as their stickiness may decrease over time, making it more difficult to transfer them successfully.
With these tips and tricks in mind, you're now ready to apply your 3D transfer labels like a pro! Remember that practice makes perfect, so don't be discouraged if your first attempt isn't perfect. The more you work with these labels, the better you'll become at creating stunning, personalized items.
