Try experimenting with this method on test peices ofdifferent paper to seehow well it works.........but besure to lay it on a non stick surface such as a sheet of teflon, that backing paper on most peal and stick decals........also an old teflon skillet will work.............so, now for a few pic's to better illustrate this procedure.
