Will it leave graphite dirt on other parts of the paper while transfering? (I'm afraid watercolor can't be opaque enough to cover that)

In my experience, the paper does not leave smudges on other parts of the paper. Water colors do cover the Saran lines on the paper. I had used another transfer paper and it contained some sort of wax which the water color did not cover. Saran was recommended to me by my water color teacher.

I was able to use it on my paintings after the base coat of the background was done with no problems. I had no problem painting over it and erased a few small areas with no problems as well. It worked perfectly.

I don't know--my experience is that it did not work for me at all, and I was trying to transfer a pattern to needlepoint canvas. It did not show up at all.

I used it on a graphite drawing on cotton and it worked well. Apply in even strokes and use 2-3 coats for best coverage.

I don't see why not...the clear coat print function is available only when the selected media type is glossy paper. I personally used Strathmore Watercolor Inkjet Paper designed specifically for inkjet printers. With it's medium texture, the paper reproduces watercolor artwork beautifully. I hope this helps.

Hi Jamie, The paper is fairly heavy but depending on color of the old wallpaper, it may show through. Also, the texture of the wallpaper liner is similar to a dryer sheet, so you may be happier with the end result if you painted it once it was thoroughly dry. Hope this helps.

The roll might have a hard time sticking to the existing wall-paper. If you cant remove the current wallpaper try to see if you can put primer in top of the wallpaper you have. It might have an easier time sticking to a coat of primer & possibly less work than stripping all of the current wallpaper. The material itself is fairly see-through but the full instructions that come with the roll include putting 2 coats of primer on top of this material so by then it might be fairly covered...

No. I think it just HAS to be transparent for best results- use transparency paper instead of tracing paper, that will work fine. :)

I'm afraid that the soft fabric will be too flexible to accept and hold the ink. If I remember correctly, patterns that transfer are iron-on, and this requires the pressure of a pen.

This transfer paper will work on a tan shirt but will lose color ( Black will turn dark grey and colors will not be as bright) it will work best on a white shirt. Have A Great Day! Glen

I recommend priming the old wallpaper first if you can't remove it. This paper seems sheer when it's wet and while we removed the old paper first, it seems like the old paper will show through this wall paper.

Yes. I transfer a drawing to a canvas that I want to oil paint. I trace the pattern. Then I use Art carbon transfer paper (buy at dickblick.com (Dick Blick) or any art supply). Lay the carbon transfer paper on your surface and then the pattern on top and trace. The patter will transfer to your wood or canvas.

I would know the answer if it had ever arrived. I paid for it but it never showed up! In any event, I bought another graphite transfer paper at AC Moore and I was disappointed to find that I was unable to erase my lines. I assume most of these tracing papers would be the same.

In short the answer is yes, however since it is erasable on wood it is more erasable on paper depending on the type of paper and how processed it is and how much of a smooth finish or how much if any water proofing wax they used to coat the paper. You can draw out from anything, any kind of pattern but you should use the appropriate transfer paper for your project to get the best results :)

I've used copics and prismacolor markers in this, the paper is thin and pen and marker will bleed through pretty badly. I would recommend buying a book or paper specifically for copics, or a multimedia sketchbook.

If you threw it in and out of a backpack and laid it out on picnic tables, I suppose it would get dirty given the light color--it is a canvas material. Mine is still clean, but I keep in a bag specific for my sketching and mostly use it at home.

Yes! (just tested), even though is is not 100% (smooth/shiny). To test it I grabbed some regular printing paper an wrote with pen/pencil and the very small (almost unnoticeable) crumbling of the surface did not pass through when writing.
