Thanks for video of lettering easy way of doing it
If you've only got a laserjet printer, avoid using masking tape. You'll need something stronger to ensure it doesn't come off inside the printer, it'll wrap around the rollers inside the printer, causing you no end of trouble! I use gorilla tape, works wonders. Also, use the tip of a hot iron on a none steam setting, with a light clear or matte varnish afterwards :)

Awesome 👏🏼 can I use ink jet printer for this? Thanks 🙏🏼

Good
Can i put stain on it after the transfer?
I would say no, because if the stain is water based your ink might bleed, but I still would recommend to seal ( a coat a clear acrylic spray)the wood.

Kann ich das auch auf behandeltem - also lackiertem, gewachstem - Holz anwenden? Vielen Dank!

Ne, auf behandelten Holz funktioniert das nicht so gut oder garnicht, weil das Holz schon versiegelt ist. Diese Techniken hier im Video basieren darauf, dass die Tinte vom Blatt/Folie in das Holz direkt einziehen.

Modpodge will do the job sealing it but it might smear. I would probably prefer clear acrylic spray instead.xxx

Needs to be a fresh print, printed with an inkjet printer. Using baking paper/ or the back paper of labels (shiny side) works best.

how long will it last on the wood?
@D4u-DIYs4you

You have to finish it off with a clear coat. Clear acrylic spray paint will do the job or similar to seal the surface. Otherwise it will not last and it will faint with time, especially if leaving it outside...

No, I don't think so. Depending as well on what kind of paint was used, oil based paint seals the wood and there is now way the transferring ink can penetrate that...

Hi, the baking paper method works on wood really well, this is the only method I use. Instead of a spoon, use the tip of an iron on a none steam setting. I use a matte varnish afterwards for a better, long lasting effect :) p.s. be careful with baking paper if you've only got a laserjet printer, avoid using masking tape, it'll only jam and wrap around the rollers inside the printer.

DO NOT USE THIS METHODS ON A LASER PRINTER, do not use any type of plastic. The printer will heat up the plastic and it will melt inside your printer.
