Custom Rub On Transfers

Custom Rub On Transfers are a great alternative to water-based decals and stencil art. They are fast, easy and affordable. They are ideal for furniture makeovers, wall art, frames, mirrors and crafts. They can be used on smooth or textured surfaces. They can be permanent or temporary depending on the type of adhesive used. They can also be repositioned and reapplied.

Dry rub down transfers are used to add text, graphics and visuals to products, product prototypes, comps, mock-ups, and scale models. They can be applied to a variety of materials, including glass, plastic, metal, and wood. Recent clients have included vintners who use them to create labels for their sample wine bottles, as well as music makers who apply them to instrument panels.

From Idea to Reality: Creating Custom Rub-On Transfers

A dry rub-down transfer is a printed design that has an adhesive layer on the back that adheres to a smooth surface. When the printed film is placed on the surface, light pressure is applied to “rub” the image down onto the surface. This produces a finish that looks like it was painted on the surface.

The color and texture of the surface must be taken into account when selecting a rub-down graphic. A dark surface can present some challenges as the graphic may not be easily readable. A white transfer is an excellent choice for these types of surfaces. The color of the surface should be matched to the color of the graphic to ensure clarity.
