Questions on Home “Curing” Waterslide Decals

Hi, I read your article on Home-Curing Lazertran Inkjet Waterslide Decals. I have two questions for you. 1) If you want to do this on a plate using the varnish method, is the plate considered safe to eat off, since the varnish has been baked and cured? 2) If I do not use the varnish does the decal still get placed face down and do you still need to use mucilage glue?

I have searched high and low on the internet for the answers and have found nothing.

Many thanks,
Torrie

P.S. love this site ... great info.

Hi Torrie,

I don't know if you recall, but in the article you refer to I mentioned a couple of times that some of the information came from other artists. I thought before I answered your questions, I'd better test for myself. Consequently I've updated Home "Curing" Waterslide Decals and added pictures of the projects I did in the process.
