3 easy steps to the perfect transfer:

2. Place your design, photo or image on top of the tracedown paper then draw on and around any parts of your design that you wish to transfer
3. Remove your design and the sheet of tracedown. You are now left with your unique design and are ready to paint, ink or colour.
DIRECTIONS
Use Tracedown like carbon paper to transfer trace a design or sketch onto another surface: any kind of paper, wood, acetate, metal, cloth, anything! One colour may be better for a specific job than another, and since the weight of the coatings have purposely been varied, adjust your pressure in tracing to get the desired result. All the colours make a fine crisp line.
You can use Tracedown for transferring designs onto cloth: and also for dressmaking. Use a standard tracing wheel to trace the pattern. Safe for marking on all fabrics including synthetics such as polyester and bleached fibres. The tracing dots will not melt into the material when ironed and may easily be sponged off if desired. The tracing wheel does not cause Tracedown to crack apart and it outlasts many other dressmaker tracing papers many times over.
For ceramics and copper enamelling, trace designs on pottery with Tracedown and the lines disappear completely in the firing, whether the piece is green bisque fired or glazed.
