Hi,
I'm looking for ways to transfer an image onto plastic. The image is going to be from a printer or photo copier. Most of it is in black and white and I can live with it all being in black and white.
the background it is going on will have a painted design on it so I don't want to use any chemical methods that may ruin the paint.
I was thinking about iron on transfers, like the ones you use for T-shirts, but I don't know how well they will work on plastic.
This is all for a project I'm thinking of trying on my laptop, to give it a custom look. I plan on taking it apart and painting it, but I'd like to be able to put some images on it that I've made in photo shop etc.
If all else fails I might look into getting it printed on, but I want to avoid that due to cost and the fact that I want to do this project on my own.
So does anyone know any image transferring methods that might work in my case?
Thanks. If you need more info let me know.
