Printing white decals

Not sure if anyone else has posted this but just been sent a link on a way of producing white (and gold) decals without and ALPS machine.

Looks rather long winded but may be of use to someone so thought I'd post it

i must say i'd rather use the "search" function and find something that way...Just looking at those instructions turns me away lol...I am more of a picture tutorial person lol But i guess if you have patience and prefer to read that, it doesn't seem like a bad link man

That's a cool idea, took me a whopping minute to read and comprehend.
Don't know that I would use that technique myself for that purpose, but knowledge is power. I'm sure there are other applications it could be a benefit for... - Mark

lol I'm the same way. . . Rather look at pics than fall asleep readin' a lengthy tut . . . Luckily, there's a pic tut to go with it.

pic tut

I've tried this in the past and found no matter if you use fine embossing powder or not, it's still WAY too thick and grainy for modeling decals. . . Just look at the last pic in that tutorial. . .
