WHAT IS A DECALCOMANIA?

• A decalcomania is a mirror image reverse printed transferable decal.
• The image is printed in reverse, so that it will appear right side up when transferred to another surface.
• A decal is printed directly onto translucent transfer decal paper.
• The transparent transfer paper is attached to a removable paper backing from which it separates upon contact with water.
• When the decal is wet with water, the translucent printed image separates from the paper backing and you can transfer it to any surface where you want to apply it.
• This transferable image is printed in reverse, so that when you transfer it, it will be right side up.
• The photos below include an image of how this will look when it is right side up, after being transferred.
