WOW!! This came out GORGEOUS!!! *** QUESTION: Did alcohol ink STAIN the gel plate??? *** I saw a video and her gel plate was orange from using alcohol inks on it. It didn't clean off the plate with alcohol. The gel plate still works just fine. But it affects how the print looks when she looks at it through the opposite side of the gel plate! I was wondering if you put matte medium on plate BEFORE alcohol inks, that might keep inks from staining the plate??? TFS Austin TX USA

@junabiagioni Жыл бұрын

Glad you liked it! My plate wasn't stained, but that can indeed sometimes happen. And correct, the plate still works fine. Your solution is creative and perhaps it works, I don't know! I guess the matte medium (or gloss medium) will also be transferred onto your print, as the top layer, but if that's ok with you then I don't see any problem. 🙂
