American Crafts, Heidi Swapp, Minc Wheel Foiling Machine Laminator Applicator & Starter Kit,12 inch, Pink, Includes Transfer Folder, Gold Foil Sheet and 3 Tags, Make Cards, Invitations, and More

I wanted to foil my wedding invites and I already had a small laminator and a large clamshell heat press. The laminator didn't work well at all, and the heat press did okay, but overall was not ideal. It's a lot of trial and error to pick a heat setting and timing, and even at the tightest setting I could get with the press still closing, it didn't apply even pressure across the prints.Overall, ~$100 for my sanity and saving materials was worth getting the Minc. I feel like I tried to buy cheaper foils and use cheaper tools and it was quite a waste of time and materials. I didn't believe the Minc could work that well, but it really applies a TON of pressure to the print and it heats up much faster than my heat press does.Only thing I don't love is the large pocket. I wish it came with 2, one large, one small. If the 12" pocket isn't fed very accurately, the skew will make it get caught in the laminator near the end. I had to cut mine down after it got chewed up my second time using it. I'll have to go and buy another if I ever want to do larger projects.For foils, I tried TCrafTX, iCraft Deco Foil, Minc, and Coolprints. Minc and Coolprints foils are the only ones I recommend. For a printer I recommend Brother HL-L2370DW with the following settings: HQ 1200, Text, Thick Paper (match to your paper type) and Improve Toner Fixing checked in the Advanced settings tab > Other Print Options > Improve Print Output.

Llego en perfecto estado, la maquina es increíble! Muy buena y muy buena marca!

I do papercrafts mostly. I had gone through 2 of the cheaper laminator. When I use this the pressure and heat makes my project much stiffer. No need to have to back. Love it.

I have been trying it on inkjet prints and the foil would just not apply. How does this work? It can’t be just the template bookmarks it works on. Does it need a special ink prints or special papers? What is it?

The media could not be loaded. Without a doubt, this laminator is a good investment. The results are impressive. It is very easy to use. 100% recommended.

The media could not be loaded. Excelente máquina para aplicar foil

...and just get a Minc. If you do textile (toner) foiling there really is no more consistent machine. I used a regular laminator for years. It was just cheaper, but very hit or miss, mostly miss. I finally broke down and got a Minc. Yes, it's a bit pricey in comparison to a Scotts laminator, but there is so much less waste of foil or mistakes, like overfoiling. I use H&H Sign Supplies toner foil which works like a charm, in class with the icraftdeco and minc's foil, only you get a lot more of it.

Esta maquina la espere con mucha emoción, Amo su color y hace un match perfecto con el resto de mi craftroom
