Tattoo transfer paper is a bit of a misnomer, there is no such thing as paper that can actually transfer a tattoo. It is more of a name which people have come to use in order to describe one of two processes. One is for placing temporary tattoos and the other for assisting in the application of real tattoos; both versions are printed in the negative of the desired finished look. The least likely usage of these words is going to be the waterslide decal paper used in applying temporary tattoos and adding printed material to objects.

You can buy this paper readymade for printers and print out your own temporary tattoos or decals. There is no real “transfer” taking place, it’s just the act of taking artwork mounted on the waterslide paper and remounting it on a new surface. The process is fairly simple; the paper has a film of adhesive on one side and is made in such a way that when the artwork is placed against the skin or object, and the paper is moistened from behind, the water then releases the artwork from the paper so that it “slides” off.

At the same time an adhesive on the art side becomes tacky and binds with whatever surface it has been mounted onto. In this way, the printed negative on the paper is then bound to the new surface and released from the paper.  Read more...
