Polaroid transfers


Recommended Posts

I just dug into some of mine 15 years old polaroid transfers don with a land 180 and polaroid 669 and i discovered how much i like these

colors. I used to roll them on different kinds of aquarell paper allways experimenting on the best papers. Anyway i miss this so much and i

know that getting 669 films is now all over. Ive been trying with fuji fp-100c films but i dosent work. ( i guees not enough emilsion and

have to bee done in darkness - so ive learned) anyway: does anyone know if is possible to ever get to do transfers again something like

this - is it possible to do it with anykind of the impossible project films or other films ive never heard about? Ive uploaded a couple of mine

transfers..

<p>Does sound interesting, though it isn't obvious why the Fuji film wouldn't work.</p>

<p>One fun thing to do with cloth is to print on it with an inkjet printer. The system I use is to iron the cloth onto freezer paper (which has a plastic coating that is just sticky enough when hot) which makes it stiff enough to go through the printer. After printing, peel the paper off and you have cloth with a printed image.</p>

<p>If you have a certain look that you want, generate the image to print with the right look.</p>

<p>OK, not quite the same, but you can make some interesting looking cloth project. It works well for quilts.</p>

<p>Fuji films can do emulsion transfers, but you need hot water. They're a little tougher than the Polaroid films. They don't come apart as easily, but they're a little tougher to get off the original backing, too. I haven't had any success with doing image transfers with freshly exposed Fuji prints, though I've heard it can be done. www.alternativephotography.com might have instructions for both. </p>
