How to use TAP Transfer Artist Paper with glass, wood, metal and more

In Today's video, Lesley Riley shows you how to transfer any image onto wood, glass, metal and more using TAP Transfer Artist Paper.

SHOP TAP:

The new TAP Transfer Artist Paper is a premium-quality paper that allows you to iron images onto virtually any surface, from wood to glass to fabric to metal. The transfer process is easy and effective, which makes TAP stand out among the competition of other transfer papers. The product features are as follows:

• It is inkjet printer compatible meaning the TAP goes inside the printer without any problems.
• Provides an extraordinarily intact and smooth transferred image
• Option to have a shiny or matte finish
• Transferred images are crisp and colorfast
• Washable and crack-resistant on fabric
• Layer transferred images for a collaged look

When printing on TAP transfer paper, am I able to print in advance and then transfer print several days later?

Does TAP have a shelf life? I bought several packages a few years ago, and if it may still be good I will implement a search thru the 'craft supply jungle' for it. My original intent was to transfer photos of my cats onto canvas and paint over the transferred images with oil or acrylic paints after applying a layer of clear gesso. Would that be an appropriate method to paint my 'kitty kids'? Thanks.

Can you use an Elna ironing press instead of an iron? Love this technique!

Can inkjet-printed photos be used, or must they be from a laser printer?

I'm a glass artist and just bought a pack to try, but am curious as to durability after the inkjet image has been transfered to the glass? And can I also use this to transfer onto glazed tile? And how durable is the image once transfered onto glass/tile? Do I need to put a protective coating over the image? Thanks...Can't wait to try this.

Can you use parchment paper instead of silicone release paper?

Can you use TAP with the prewashed Kraft Tex? Also, can you iron on to a project you've already sewn in Kraft-Tex say the KT sew on to felt? Thanks!

Is there a way to get rid of the shiny polymer that shows when transferring an image to a dark substrate (e.g., brown paper)?

I bought some TAP last year at SAM FLAX. How do I know if it is the NEW TAP? If it is old TAP does it work the same? Thx

Could this work on the back of dominoes?
