DECOUPAGE & TRANSFER GEL
One Product. Two Creative Possibilities.
Our Decoupage & Transfer Gel makes it easy to add images, artwork, papers, and decorative details to almost any project.
Use it as an adhesive for decoupage or to transfer a printed image directly onto a surface. It goes on white so you can easily see where you've applied it, then dries to a clear matte finish.
Perfect for adding something completely unique to furniture, décor, signs, glass, metal, wood, painted surfaces, and more.
FOR IMAGE TRANSFERS
Apply Decoupage & Transfer Gel to your prepared surface, then place your printed image face down into the wet gel.
Smooth firmly with a putty knife, scraper, or credit card to ensure good contact and remove air bubbles. Allow it to dry for approximately 24 hours.
Once dry, wet the back of the paper and gently rub away the paper fibres to reveal your transferred image underneath.
Finish with another layer of Decoupage & Transfer Gel or your favourite Fusion™ wax or top coat for added protection.
FOR DECOUPAGE
Apply the gel to your surface and/or the back of your decorative paper, tissue, or image, then position it in place.
Gently smooth away wrinkles and air bubbles. A layer of cling wrap placed over the top can help you smooth delicate papers without damaging them.
Once dry, apply another coat of Decoupage & Transfer Gel to seal the surface, or finish with another compatible Fusion™ top coat.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do I decoupage?
To decoupage, you want to essentially “glue” your material to your surface. You can apply the Gel onto the surface and place your material. Smooth it out or scrunch it up how you like it, and then for extra adhesion you can add another coat of Gel on top.
How do I transfer a photo?
For photo transfer, you need to make sure you use a laser printer. A lot of times you’ll also want to reverse your photo before you print it, as it will apply backwards. Next, apply a bit of Gel to the front of the photo and to the surface you are transferring onto. BLOG
