Question can you use any kind of clear coat or does it have to be a certain kind with ink jet? I’m really New to this and my image fell apart in my hands 🤣🤣🤣 ink went everywhere
I love love love your tutorial. I was looking for the other video with this video when you were going to add the glitter. I’m not able to locate it🥺🥺. Also do you have a tutorial on cutting overlay. Holy cow that was amazing. Is that how you would do all overlay’s. Put your measuring tape in the middle and cut straight down. That was beautiful how it matched up. Thank you so very much. You’re amazing 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Is it ok to use the Rustoleum clear gloss instead of matte? That's what I have on hand but wanted to make sure first. You add your three coats of clear spray paint and then after that you do your 3 plastidip? Not one clear spray and then one p;astidip and so forth. Hope I'm making sense lol. Thank you for your tutorial.
Yes you can use clear gloss, correct if it’s a large image I recommend at least 3 coats of each but it doesn’t require heavy coats just make sure you let dry in between and don’t seal in the direct sunlight. I hope this was helpful.
Hey!! Question do you not have to seal it after you place it on the cup? Does the water slide not come off of the cup after it’s placed ? How long does it take to set? Do you recommend spraying it again after you put the water slide on the cup? Thanks !!
What do u use at the end to make the cup shinny and last a long time, and after u spray the tumbler is there anything else u use to prep the tumbler for the waterslide
I am so sorry for my delayed response, I used epoxy as a final coat and added an additive to shine the whole thing up. I dont do anything special to prep a cup.
I'm a fan of your work!...... and I watch your videos over and over when I need help with things and I wait not so patiently for you to upload a new video on YT every week ....lol!!. Thank you for sharing and helping out us new tumbler makers. I have a question tho.....I am struggling with getting an image on a rounded 14 oz coffee mug (from Stainless Steel Depot). I found this really cute image and thought instead of a waterslide (clear-you wouldn't see the image anyway because the cup is blue and glittered) I thought I would print my image on sticker paper. I sealed it with clear spray paint 3 times ( I have an inkjet), cut it out and applied it. I could not get it to lay flat on the front of the mug. DISASTER. So then I thought I would try a white waterslide, sealed then sprayed with Plasti Dip. I thought this surely would work. Well I did a full sheet, cut out the image, sealed it 3 times then sprayed with Plasti Dip, waited about 4 hours then applied it. The edges curled up on my waterslide and I couldn't get them to lay flat. I am so mad. I see all these beautiful cups and I know I can do this, but whenever I try, it's a failure. :( My one thought was after I cut out the image, should I seal the sides and then Plasti Dip the sides too?? I was hoping that you could do a tutorial using images on a rounded ( for the lack of a better word) surface?? I'm posting this here because this was the video I remembered of you using Plasti Dip and getting the image to stretch. I did get the image to somewhat flatten out but the edges are a pain in the .... Please help. Thanks!
Awww, thank you so much! Lets dive into this and I hate to say it but it could be as simple as sizing of the image. I to started my tumbler creating on curved tumblers and there is a real learning curve lol no pun intended. If the image is to big for the surface it will always wrinkle and never lay flat, now there are some tricks to where you can cut several slices into the outter edges of the image in order to get in to lay flat but that to can be a pain. I would recommend making the image smaller and you can also try using printable vinyl from Cricut or the Silhouette brand that doesn't have to be sealed which prevents using all the sealers. I will say that I would find myself using the Silhouette brand more often as the paper/vinyl is thinner and I found it to be much easier to work with verses the Cricut brand. I also get my 140z Coffee mugs that are curved from AB Designs, and I would not make my image or images more than 3.5 x 3.5 inches this way I would apply the image or decal on the flat section just before the cup starts to curve. I really hope this was helpful also they do sell a waterslide with a white backing but for some reason I never managed that very well, however you might so that too is an option. I have never used plasti dip with sticker paper as it doesn't work the same and really only works on clear waterslide paper. Please let me know if there is anything more I can do it help ok. You got this honey, don't give up.
Do you have a picture tutorial? I have a fried that wants me to put pictures of her grandkids on a cup. Just unsure of how you put them on without them looking choppy or well I don’t know how to explain myself. Just don’t want it to look like they just got stuck on there. Well anyway you are a phenomenal teacher! I love your work and thank you again for another great tutorial.
I do, I hope this tutorial may help you with an idea for a picture tumbler and or I have many tuts using waterslides that would also work well for your picture tumbler. ua-cam.com/video/uhCJJICpIGU/v-deo.html Thank you so much for watching my tutorials.
not sure if I missed this but could you please tell the exact measurements you printed your slide on? I've done water slides before but never a full size like this. I want to make sure I'm doing exactly what I should be. Thanks so much video is so helpful!!
This is awesome! I have a question, or 2, as I am a total Plasti Dip newbie. Firstly, did you paint the tumbler white or is that a white Plasti Dip and second--Is the PD Glossifier the only PD used? Thanks so much :)
Is there a special waterslide you used I did the same thing I waited 30 mins between each coat did 3 coats of each and let dry 24 plus hours and it tore? Please help!!
Yes, so the trick is never wait long in between coats when sealing, Once you have done all three seals you must use right away. If you have any more questions let me know. Also don't seal and leave in the sun either.
Two questions: How long do you wait before you trim the edges and overlap? And I've had issues with the colors rubbing off with too much manipulation, how can I avoid that??
I wait about 10 to 15 mins depending on the temp in my work space, Make sure when you spray your seals on to the waterslide that you dont wait to long in between coats, I usually never wait more then 5mins. I hope this was helpful, please let me know if you have any other questions.
Do you mind sharing what brand cup you used for this ? I know you said modern curve but I would love to know cup brand If you’re allowed to share ? Thank you so much for this tutorial was very helpful not many people are doing this! Everything is for Skinnys and I have 150 curved tumblers I bought in bulk from hogg that I have to sell LOL!!! So it’s pretty frustrating to see all these super easy techniques but they’re all for Skinnys. Thanks again!
I have been having a hard time with my waterslide wrap. I sprayed 3 times with the rustoleum 2x clear and then did 3 layers of plastidip for when I go to apply it to my cup it seems rather slimy and ripped on me, even after using the plastidip. Any idea why that might be happening? Thanks so much.
You are doing all the right steps it sounds, but the only thing that comes to mind is maybe the coats are too heavy so it’s not drying well in between coats which would make the slide slimy. The goal with the clear is to seal in the inks and the plastidip is to help with the give when it’s slightly stretched to wrap the tumbler. I hope this helps please keep me posted. ❤️❤️
I absolutely LOVE your tutorials!! I'm always anxiously waiting the next one! I'm trying to accomplish a full wrap on a 30 oz modern curve and it's kicking my rear!! It's for my dad and I want it to be as perfect as possible (as with all my cups) I wonder if you can tell me which printer you have? I know you said it's an inkjet but I was wondering what brand? Mine puts lines in over 75% of my prints. So frustrating, as waterslide is a bit pricey! That is for all the knowledge and inspiration you give me xo
Lea Kruger Awww thank you so much! This means so much to me❤️ I use an HP Envy and I use to have lines throughout my slides also but I just tweaked the quality in the settings and haven’t had the issue since. I really hope this helps. ❤️
@@RebeccaEscott in this tutorial, you used plastidip and matte enamel spray but is there something else I need to do to seal? First time using waterslide so I'm nervous lol.
Elvia Tapia-Vivar Aww don’t be nervous you got this. I only use plasti dip when working with larger waterslide, you won’t need anything else to seal. Take your time and when you seal make sure it’s in the shade, also I spray almost back to back never wait to long in between sprays. Once sealed use right away.
@@RebeccaEscott did my first full size tumbler today. Your steps were awesome. Am I supposed to Finish it off with anything or will the waterslide not reactivate when if gets washed ?
I have never used glossifier on inks so I can not answer this question honestly. I am sorry for my delayed response as I was not aware until recently that I was not being notified for every question.
Maribel Manzano When doing full sheet waterslides I never epoxy the cup first, but when doing the small slides I will. Especially want to epoxy before applying water slide on to a glitter tumbler.
@@triciacorker8837 Oh, yes Im sorry. Ive seen so many ppl tell others they need to wait like 30mins in between sprays and Im like no... lol The faster you can spray within coats the better and always use asap.
I really appreciate all of your help and super fast response! I have been struggling with these! I'll start a new one now. Thank you so much for the great tutorial 😊
Sorry I'm really really new to tumblers and I missed a basic 1st Step... Are you starting with regular paper or do you have to get something special to use this technique?
Hi everyone, can I get some help? :/ I am having massive printing issues. My printer leaves scratch marks all the time and sometimes the print is totally unusable. My printer back feed uses wheels that make contact with the ink on the paper and leave marks, and my front feed keeps bumping into curved or elevated surfaces on the paper, scratching the ink. Does anyone know how this can be solved? Many thanks in advance :)
I haven’t done waterslide yet but I see from other tutorials where epoxy is used so my question is do you have to use epoxy being that it’s not good to use it or does this take the place of epoxy for sealing cups etc. thanks
Melicent Lucas Great question, So I definitely epoxy all my cups and it’s perfectly safe if done correctly. I use the clear spray to seal my inks bc I use a printer and I also use the plasti dip on large waterslides to help with the stretch that’s required to wrap my tumbler. I really hope this helps.
Liana Arriaga I made this tutorial, I am hopeful it can help you. It’s an online resize site that helps me so much, I can enlarge an image without it getting distorted, then once I hit the download button at the bottom another screen pops up and I print right from that. ua-cam.com/video/Y17FMZUb5h8/v-deo.html
Lil Ditty I know I’m so sorry, every time it goes off I’m literally rolling my eyes, it’s so sensitive that the cars going by sets it off. Lol The imagine I pulled off google, I searched pink marble and it came up. Thank you so much for watching the tutorial. ❤️
You can turn down the radius that it picks up. Mine was doing that too. But sometimes I want it that sensitive so I have more time to know someone is there. My internet is super slow.
Lil Ditty Yeah I like mine sensitive as well and I guess you can turn it off or put it to sleep lolol idk what they call it and I never ever remember until I’m filming and it goes off. I’m a mess hahah
The plasti dip helps give the ability to stretch and get it around the cup the way you need to. Ive been practicing with WaterSlides for such a long time and many have told me it can not be done and it could never be done on a 30oz with a curve, But it most defiantly can be done on a curve and done so without any distortion. ❤
@@richellegarza9807 Make sure when you are spraying your coats to seal that you only wait about 3 to 5 mins, if you wait any longer then that you waterslide will be ruined. Never wait, once you seal the slide you must use it immediately.
Creative Vinyl Designs By Rebecca Escott well thats what i did wrong. Usually when seal waterslide i wait 24hrs but thats without plasti dip. I tried plasti dip for the first time yesterday and ripped it but I waited to long
Im sorry this was before I had my screen record and mic, So its not the greatest. However, I hope this video helps. If not please ask and I will do my best to answer any questions you may have. ua-cam.com/video/Y17FMZUb5h8/v-deo.html
Here's a fun waterslide tutorial you might be interested in as well. ua-cam.com/video/KXrbRWthxYU/v-deo.html
Can you use any cup or does it have to be a certain kind?
Thanks for the awesome tutorial. Watched it several times and was all set and ready to go and BAM I bought BLACK Plastidip! DOH!!!
Rachel Summers Oh no, you’ll be ready when you get the Clear. ❤️
Thank you so much for explaining and showing the flaws. Love the video and Thank you once again.
You are so welcome! Thank you soo much
Thank you. Never seen a curve su successfully wrapped before
It looks amazing 😉 Thank you!!!
Thank you so much
Can you tell me if you can do a waterslide to the top of a hydroflask and what would be the trick?? You make it looks so easy
Im sorry for my delayed response, However I would use the exact same steps to apply to a hydroflask as I did onto the tumbler.
Question can you use any kind of clear coat or does it have to be a certain kind with ink jet? I’m really New to this and my image fell apart in my hands 🤣🤣🤣 ink went everywhere
I definitely recommend using clear 2x seal from Rustoleum to seal these waterslides.
Where did you get this water slide paper it’s Gorgeous
wat size to cover full 18.5oz tumbler
This was amazing. Thank you.
I love love love your tutorial. I was looking for the other video with this video when you were going to add the glitter. I’m not able to locate it🥺🥺.

Do you have to use matte clear enamel or can you use glossy clear?
Omg the way you manhandled that waterslide is amazing. I barely pull it and it cracks. Guess I need the plastidip
G La Thank you so much! It took lots of practice to be able to do that lol plastidip is a game changer..
I was wondering what the point was.. now I understand. It helps it stretch!
Hey!! Question do you not have to seal it after you place it on the cup? Does the water slide not come off of the cup after it’s placed ? How long does it take to set? Do you recommend spraying it again after you put the water slide on the cup? Thanks !!
Once the waterslide is completely dry I seal with a coat of epoxy. The epoxy takes 3 days to fully cure.
Did you apply epoxy? Or was this the finished result? If yes, what type of epoxy do you recommend?
Where did you get your image (glitter ombré into marble)? I love it
I just pulled this image off Google and then print on a waterslide. ❤️

Thank you so much.
I have a question i used this spray to seal my water slide but I notice it started changing but sealed it really good so why is it bleeding the color?
Angie Ruiz Luna You can use matte clear and spray 3x then plasti dip also 3x however plasti dip is only required if the waterslide is large.
Is this water slide paper?
I just came across your channel. Did you ever do pt2 of this? I really wanted to see it with the glitter.

Thats all waterslide.

Will this work with white or clear?
I can't speak on the white water slide as I have never attempted this method on white, however this works on the clear water slide.
Love your tutorials, how long do you wait between each coat of sealer and plastidip
Tamikka09 Not long, 5 to 7 mins usually all it normally takes.
Does glossifier fade alcohol inks like epoxy does?
I have never used glossifier on inks so I can not answer this question honestly. I am sorry for my delayed response as I was not aware until recently that I was not being notified for every question.
Did you wait until the slide was dry before you trimmed the seam?
Donna Violette I only wait about 10mins or so.
Creative Vinyl Designs By Rebecca Escott thank you so much🥰🥰
Great tutorial
Could I please ask - I live in central NY and I was just wondering how long do I let the plasti dip dry before I can put in water?
April Alfred Anytime after you have sealed and everything has completely dried to the touch, it’s safe to go into the water.
Thank you so much
Love your tutorial
Patricia Browning Thank you so much.❤️
Hi why do u have to use both sprays? I have the plasti dio and i only use that one
I have an HP envy printer so I have to use the clear to seal my inks. I’ve tried using only plasti dip on my slides and it just doesn’t work for me.
Creative Vinyl Designs By Rebecca Escott do u epoxy first then add waterslide or doesnt matter if u just waterslide directly to the tumbler?
Maribel Manzano When doing full sheet waterslides I never epoxy the cup first, but when doing the small slides I will. Especially want to epoxy before applying water slide on to a glitter tumbler.
Omg thanks for this!!
Is this an A4 size water slide paper or a standard 8.5 x 11
angelsandfaes This is the A4 waterslide paper I bought off Amazon.
How long did you wait after the final spray? Thanks.
Tricia Corker Once it was dry I went right into applying the slide. You never want to wait once you start the spray process.
Well shoot! I guess those 2 I did are trash. I sprayed them last night. Thanks for the help
@@triciacorker8837 Oh, yes Im sorry. Ive seen so many ppl tell others they need to wait like 30mins in between sprays and Im like no... lol The faster you can spray within coats the better and always use asap.

Sorry I'm really really new to tumblers and I missed a basic 1st Step... Are you starting with regular paper or do you have to get something special to use this technique?
You need special paper to do this and its called a waterslide, you can use a regular printer or a laser jet, they have the waterslides for both.

Lil Ditty I know I’m so sorry, every time it goes off I’m literally rolling my eyes, it’s so sensitive that the cars going by sets it off. Lol The imagine I pulled off google, I searched pink marble and it came up. Thank you so much for watching the tutorial. ❤️
You can turn down the radius that it picks up. Mine was doing that too. But sometimes I want it that sensitive so I have more time to know someone is there. My internet is super slow.
Lil Ditty Yeah I like mine sensitive as well and I guess you can turn it off or put it to sleep lolol idk what they call it and I never ever remember until I’m filming and it goes off. I’m a mess hahah
What is the wait time between sparys
I am so sorry for my delayed response, I wait 3 to 4 mins tops when spraying these waterslides in between coats.
Does the dip spray, help the waterslide to stay stronger. You make it look so easy. Lol I never can take my back off smooth
The plasti dip helps give the ability to stretch and get it around the cup the way you need to. Ive been practicing with WaterSlides for such a long time and many have told me it can not be done and it could never be done on a 30oz with a curve, But it most defiantly can be done on a curve and done so without any distortion. ❤
Thank you
I sprayed mine last night can I still apply it to my cup and it still stretch like I need it to
Me too 🥰
Would love to know where to find image like this .
Debra Bright Yahoo, I just searched pink marble I’m pretty sure.
I just have to say I am mind blown right now of how much you were able to stretch that!!! I need to try the plastidip!
La Tisha Smeigh Yes! Plastidip is a game changer with waterslides... ❤️ I have a couple other fullsheet waterslide tutorials you might also enjoy.
Same i just tried a skinny tumbler yesterday and used plasti dip nope ripped it 🤦♀️
@@richellegarza9807 Make sure when you are spraying your coats to seal that you only wait about 3 to 5 mins, if you wait any longer then that you waterslide will be ruined. Never wait, once you seal the slide you must use it immediately.
Creative Vinyl Designs By Rebecca Escott well thats what i did wrong. Usually when seal waterslide i wait 24hrs but thats without plasti dip. I tried plasti dip for the first time yesterday and ripped it but I waited to long
Why matte as opposed to gloss?
Its just a personal preference for me however any of the clear seals could work.
size of paper print out for 18.5oz tumbler
😩 I need some of your patience lol
lol thank you so much
HOW DO YOU PRINT A FULL PAGE
Im sorry this was before I had my screen record and mic, So its not the greatest. However, I hope this video helps. If not please ask and I will do my best to answer any questions you may have. ua-cam.com/video/Y17FMZUb5h8/v-deo.html
great video but you might wanna stop working on a piece of carpet to avoid getting that "stuff" under your slide
Yes I have since, thank you ♥️
Why do you use plasti dip
I use Plastidip to allow the waterslide to stretch to wrap around the tumbler.
