- In this video I'm going to demonstrate how you can create beautiful images onto ceramic tiles fast and easy. If you can print the image, you can transfer it onto smooth ceramic tiles for fun designs, creative walls and counters, and so much more!
Learn how fast and easy it is to do this yourself at home.
This paper is called Quick Transfer Paper and is available from:

Folks, please note that the printouts are done on the RixCanDoIt Quick Transfer paper and not regular printer paper. This is specially treated for easy peel transfers. Details in the description.
I n eed help on my tile transfers I have white subway tile in my kitchen .I want to dress it up a little .bought your transfer paper printed on laser printer . Etched the tile cleaned good used mod podge to the etched portion of the tile ,with the printed picture let it dry used water to removed the print pressed down let it set for about 1 minute when I peeled the print came off good but there was lot of the transfer around the designs stayed on also making it look fuzzy . I tried to wipe off the transfer paper the printed picture would start to come off also
@@bubweeleer2997 Step #1, please read the letter that comes with every package. Step #2, pay particular attention to the instructions on if you have any issues. 🧔♂
I've deleted all of my saved videos and channels pertaining to the process of transfers. Thank you so much. Your the one and only.
That's a big compliment. Thanks! :-)
Very nice tiles, I have done sublimation and the colors are just as vibrant. Thanks again
Those are beautiful. Thank you for sharing your craft ❤
Glad you like them!
Thank you I'm so excited I can't heartily wait to try this. This what I was looking for.
Hope you enjoy!
Hi Rix,I was very happy to have come across your videos, about the quick transfer paper because I really didn't like to have to be rubbing the paper off for so long afterwards, you're paper is so much easier. Thank you..I now have order and ready to get transferring photos to my tiles...
Ditto
I really enjoy your video
You are amazing teacher Rix, thanks!
Hey, thanks a bunch!
I just came upon your video today. YOur amazing and i love learning all your skills. Thank you
Thank you so much!
Awesome
I Rix I appreciate your tutoring video. I’m going to try it. Hopefully I’m going to be successful. Thanks for sharing.
You can do it!
quite exciting...thank you Sir
My pleasure!
Can’t wait til the paper gets here!
Looks like it will arrive by Monday. Nice. Thanks for your support. Be sure to follow the directions carefully. Watch several of my videos on the subject. And if you have any issues, I'm here to help! Just ask via email.
Marvellous ideas, thank you for sharing. Unfortunately I haven't got laser printer, also this paper is not available in UK. Thank you anyway, is so good to watch your artwork 😊
Thanks for watching and commenting. You may want to watch some of my other videos that demonstrate how you can use your inkjet printer. As for being in the UK, no it isn't available there, but can be shipped there.
Wow that's amazing thanks so much for sharing...what kind of paper you used? 🙏👌 also please ..how do you spell the product that you used to get the glaze of the tiles thanks so in advance 💌
The paper I use for all my videos is the RixCanDoIt Quick Transfer Paper. This is also indicated in the description area of the video. The glaze is removed with Armour Etch Glass Etching Cream.
Do you think these would fade in the sun? Ever tried this for outdoor use? Could a UV sealer work do you reckon? Great video thx !!
Don't know. No. I think it could. Thanks!
Very nice. I have a project for my club and I am going to use you tutorial. I may reach out to you if I may .
Of course, reach away.
Can this process be done for transferring numbers on the tile? And whats the tool you use to roll to make the picture stick?
If you can print it, you can transfer it. The tool is a brayer.
I want to put photos on the tiles and use as coasters, what products are best to keep the water from messing the photos?
If you are going to use for display, then a Krylon Clear coat spray should be fine. If you are going to use it for a shower, tub, etc. then I'd epoxy it. Perhaps someone else might have other ideas.
Could your method be used to on tiles on a kitchen backsplash?
If glue will stick to it, yes. If not due to being glazed tile, then you'll have to remove the glaze for the areas you wish to transfer to. And for all surfaces, it must be smooth/flat.
What is the brand and make of laser printer do you currently use
Any laser printer or laser copier will work. Mine is a HP Color Laserjet Pro M254w
What a splendid video, thank you.
Can you tell me how durable the transfer is in the long term? I'd like to do several and tile a wall with them, can I grout the tiles and scrub off the grout and then able to clean the tiles for years without rubbing off the transfers? I'm not talking about tiling a shower area or anything, but I'd like to know they're durable. What do you reckon?
It's all going to depend on the sealer you use. I wouldn't leave the transfer without some protection if you intend on washing or rubbing it for any reason. Find a good sealer (or epoxy) to protect the tile and transfer for use in wet environments or where you plan on cleaning it periodically.
@@imagetransferswithrix ah right thanks, can you recommend any particular one that doesn't yellow?
I have loved this video and watch it over and over to make sure I'm getting it right. I have a few time-sensitive questions for gifts to be given on Dec 13. So, I used Armour Etch on about 36 tiles. I did the whole tile to save time taping each one. First, some of the tiles have a smudgy look - is that glaze? The ones that showed some of the glaze were touched up. Secondly, I rinsed the tiles and they are still retaining water on the back side. Is that normal? I currently have them on cooling racks with a fan on them. Third, I am losing just tiny bits of the image. I have some small print. Is it not enough paste (Mod Podge) or too much water? Some of the Rix transfer paper is coming up in spots occasionally (on my trial pieces). Finally, I see an edge on the tile-I think it's the transfer film, assumedly due to stripping the whole tile. What do you suggest, if anything, to fix this? Thank you in advance for your quick response. Please!
Recommend using Gel Medium over Mod Podge. You are going to have a clear film that is the dried Gel Medium, so cut off any excess non-printed area. If you don't have a complete transfer but some spots left out, then either you have no medium there (like air bubbles) or simply missed when spreading, poor contact (not pressed down well), dried areas before the image was even applied, or areas where you still have glaze (and so it won't stick there).
Keep in mind: If you can glue regular paper to the substrate and when dried cannot be removed (without crazy soaking, rubbing, scraping, etc.), then you can transfer an image there using the Quick Transfer paper (without the crazy soaking, rubbing, scraping, etc.)
Any part of the image that is left on the paper and not transferred onto the substrate is the part that simply was not glued down to begin with. A properly glued paper cannot be pulled up off your substrate, and that includes the image. The Quick Transfer Paper simply makes it easy to separate the paper from the image, but the image still needs to be glued down first if you want to have it pulled off the paper.
@@imagetransferswithrix, thank you so much for your answer. Could you comment on the questions in my original post about the smudgy look and the wetness of the tiles after rinsing off the Armour Edge, please? I will get Gel Medium; do you use Gloss or Matte?
@@rebec52n I'm not sure what you mean by 'smudgy look and wetness of the tiles'. If you rinse off the tiles and it does not look uniformly 'not shiny' (all gloss removed), then you need to do it again until it is completely removed. Each tile may have a different amount of 'gloss' to remove, so you will just have to keep at it until it is completely removed. I use 'Matte' gel.
I stumbled across your video and really liked it. I have been using clear Gorilla Glue to adhere a 37 lb photo paper. The glaze is left on. It bonds very well without scaring the tile first. Do you think this could be used to do this?
I'm not sure I understand your question. Do you think (what) could be used to do (what)? In this video I am transferring the 'image' only and therefore there is no paper left glued to the tile. This would be much different than gluing paper pictures to the tile and leaving it on there. Or are you asking if you can do the transfer itself using 37lb paper instead of the paper I'm using? Let me know what exactly you are asking. Thanks.
@@imagetransferswithrix Thanks for your quick response. I was thinking of using the Gorilla Glue as the substrate for the ink to stick to. It would be the medium between the glazed tile and your paper. I'll have to order some of your paper and see if it works. Thanks.
@@MeCarl1 Oh okay. Thanks for clarifying. The tile would be your substrate, the Gorilla Glue your adhesive medium, and the paper is the QT paper. Got it. If the Gorilla Glue will stick to the tile, then it will work. But if I recall, G Glue is yellowish. Not sure it would be pretty. Let me know how it goes.
are these tiles sublimation coated? i don't understand how they sublimate on regular tiles.
No. This video demonstrates that I'm transferring images from Laser printed image transfer paper. No sublimation. How this is done is clearly demonstrated in the video.
If I want to make ceramic pieces, does it have to be before or after firing? Can I only do it after firing?
As I don't fire ceramics myself, I can only GUESS that if you did the transfer 'before' firing, the firing will likely burn the image off.
So, if I have unglazed tiles, no need for Armor Etch?
That's right. As long as you know that if you were to glue a piece of paper onto it that it would not peel off, then you know that surface can be transferred to. You'll want it nice and flat though.
Hi, where can I get the products you use to buy am living Jamaica
Depending on what products you are referring to, some you can buy online. 🙂
Can I print out of any ceramic tile with the heat press ?
"print out of any ceramic tile with the heat press?" I'm confused.
Is there a transfer paper that you can print on injet printers?
For T-Shirts, yes. I never found any available for transferring to anything else. That's why I had to come up with one of my own and unfortunately found inkjets didn't work well but lasers did.
Is this like using release paper?
Don't know what release paper is. But this paper does release.
Can you use unglazed tiles and skip the Armour Etch?

Do u have to use a laser printer ? Will it not work with ink jet ?
Thanks. 😀
Did you use an inkjet or laser copier?
They are printed using a LASER printer. Inkjet does not work well and is not recommended.
Could you sublimate on them using the same process
I've never done sublimation.
Hi, how durable is it? Maybe it can be installed later on the bathroom or kitchen wall?
That depends on how you protect it. If you don't protect it, it won't be too durable in the shower. If you aren't going to put it in water or sun, and you aren't going to be scrubbing it, it will last awhile without protection. I suggest you look into how to protect tile for the type of project you are doing.
Thanks@@imagetransferswithrix
Do you sell custom tiles?
Ah...no. But you can make them.
I ll. Keep the modpoge.
Bhah
bhah - translation: This is the most awesome video on putting images on ceramic tiles I've ever seen! 😆
What is quick transfer paper????
It's the paper used to transfer the image onto the ceramic tile (or wood, paper, glass, fabric, etc.). It makes the process really easy if you have a laser printer as demonstrated in the video.
This is the first time in my life that I have seen something so beautiful, I was not sleepy and I was on CZcams, and by chance I saw your videos, how interesting and what patience you have to explain all this procedure, I just subscribed ... thanks for this demonstration.. I think I can encourage myself to try to learn from your projects.. I loved it, apart from everything you have a lot of charisma
It's permanent if it used out door
Spray a sealer on it.
do not waste of others if u r not sure
Do not waste what and unsure of what?
