You aren't far off actually... in fact I know there's already capture technology that reads depth and can assign a 3-D overlay to an image file. Also there are latex printers now that can print topographical white upon which the color image gets printed after.

good vid! one tip - at the end (or begining too) to see a before and after. and if you had two identical prints to show one with and one without side by side

Great vid. Exactly what I was looking for. I'd had this idea to make some photoshop prints on "canvas" but wanted to see if anyone else had actually had any luck pulling it off and what type of "varnish" would work. I printed my designs via an online service on to a wooden framed PVC "canvas". They looked kind of plasticy and flat. If you catch them at the wrong angle to the light, they lose all authenticity. And have to contact the printers to see how the prints and the PVC canvas might respond to this product. Maybe try it on a small test print. Thanks again for the video. This could be a great solution.

so you're a digital artist? I was going to say if you have non virtual art we have a scanner that can capture texture with variable lighting abilities. Its about the biggest and fastest in north america. you can always send us originals. but if you're a digital artists then your exactly right. Add the texture you want. Also I will tell you our printers are way better than most anything you will ever find from most online retailers. You should send me a file and i will send you a proof on several materials.

Probably not the best idea to use it on a paper product. Paper tends to still have some observed of qualities even after being printed. Therefore you might see some waviness or tension build in the substrate. You’re advised only to use on a canvas product that has been coated after printing.

there are tons of varnishes and texturizing mediums but nothing quite like this product. The thick body really allows a lot of cool capabilities. Also, it's designed to be chemically compatible with the aqueous inkjet mediums.

But if you are buying these from a provider who does not coat it helps to know how they were printed first. Aqueous inkjet needs to have something like clear star or glamour II commercial grade UV liquid laminate coating. These are typically sprayed or rolled on. hahnemuhle makes a few smaller volume products for inkjet prints if you are doing it yourself.

Can I use impasto?

Could you dry it carefully with just a fan and move the air over the canvas at room temperature, ya?🔥

@damicoframeartprinting5274

3 жыл бұрын

I don't advise this as you can run the risk of sealing the outer exposed surface too fast. this can lead to hazing. If you are on the fast dry track I have found a hair dryer or heat gun (heat seems to help avoid hazing when speed drying). I don't know the long term ramifications of this but I believe it will be fine. keeping it indoors but setting it in the sun through a window works nicely too if you're in a hurry.

You can use this with a knife. Just can’t get too thick otherwise it gets milky. Work in multiple sessions to build extreme textures with plenty of dry time between layers

“Who cares”… so funny… but you are right. Thx for the info.

Don’t know if anyone will answer this , since the video is older . But how does it compare to a semi gloss mod podge ? I sell prints to an antique / salvage place and they frame them . I was looking for something with more texture than the mod podge and having no luck .

I had heard adding corn starch to the mod podge helps … and I guess it does a bit … but don’t use it on a dark picture because sometimes you can see tiny little balls of white . There HAS. To be something out there that you can add to thicken it up that dries clear , but I’ve had no luck finding it :( it’d be so much easier than doing 5 coats . The matte is the thinnest , the shinier the podge the thicker it is … but I don’t want it shiny .

It may make your paper a little wavy but should work. If you can spray coat the paper with a protective spray to create a barrier you’ll get better results. www.amazon.com/Hahnemuhle-Protective-Spray-Digital-Prints/dp/B0009MX2VS/ref=asc_df_B0009MX2VS/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=241899609306&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10522958608859047008&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1025990&hvtargid=pla-448182737209&psc=1

Also just to clarify that this is some kind of print you’re wanting to texture? Because there’s tons of cheaper methods for this for fine art materials. Print inks tend to be way more sensitive which requires these specific treatments.

Is this on a giclee canvas print or a giclee print?

@damicoframeartprinting5274

2 жыл бұрын

So that print is on canvas. Basically any fine art reproduction printed with an inkjet printer is technically a Giclee. And, they are all prints. Regardless of their media type. I will tell you though the Z gel product works best on canvas simply because it is typically coated with a UV varnish. Plus The paper media products still have some absorptive qualities and can tend to wave and buckle when you apply something like Z gel.

are you sure this stuff dries clear?

Yes! it is a bit scary at first... but trust me. Just avoid getting it too thick. That can lead to hazy ness.. also if you redcoat an area before it has had time to dry you may see haze occur. But My best advise is to play on something of no value first. We print for artists and are happy to provide a sample for no charge with your work printing on it. this is a great pace to play until you feel confident to take a chance on the full scale.
