In this video I show you start -to-finish how to make decorative tile coasters using your Silhouette Cameo. I then coated the tiles in epoxy resin for a deep, glasslike finish, and added a cork backing to make them into drink coasters. Vinyl used for this project include Oracal 651 (colors), Vvivid Deco (Chrome silver), and Vvivid V2 Pro HTV Hyper Glitter (glitter gold images).

Resin I love to use is Naked Fusion. No harsh chemicals and it's food degradable. Thanks for the video 😊

Thanks for watching and for the kind words. I found somewhere on online regal split font I’m sure for free for personal use. But you can make your own split fonts also...I have a vid showing how. I’m working on a photo one 😊

Id there something else that can be added over the epoxy? Mine seemed to scuff fairly easy.

@erickrocks1126 2 жыл бұрын

I’m not sure. You’d have to check the manufacturer specifications of the epoxy . Some epoxies require a month or more before they become fully hardened Resistant To scuffing

Can I use something other than epoxy. I have little ones and know that it can be toxic. I have used britetone which is a water based and it works just as same as epoxy. Could I maybe try that to see if it works

@ColorChangeCustoms Жыл бұрын

Yes! There are some other things you could use that would work. You could use various clear sprays, but those are or can be noxious as well. The other option is to use a clear laminate, like the one here: amzn.to/3osXZNo You could also use something like clear paint protection film (PPF)...it's the "clear bra" stuff put on the front ends of car to protect from rock chips, scratches, etc.

What's the measurement of your decal? Is the coaster 4x4 or 4.25x4.25?

@ColorChangeCustoms 3 жыл бұрын

The coaster is 4.25" square, so just make sure your decal fits within. I personally wouldn't make any dimension of the decal and bigger than 4".

You should of used regular tape...

@ColorChangeCustoms 2 ай бұрын

I have tried electrical tape, masking tape, painters tape, scotch tape, and duct tape--even sealing those tapes down as best as possible, the epoxy made it's way under each of those tapes and became hard to remove. I found vinyl wrap to be the best seal so far since I can heat it and it seals really well and hasn't let any epoxy dripping under the tile back. If there's a specific tape you've had success with, I'm totally game for giving that tape a try.

@s.h.9694 3 жыл бұрын

When I tried to remove the tape from the bottom of a tile I found that because it was a drip it cracked the epoxy on the sides of the tile. Have you had this happen? If so how can you prevent it?

@ColorChangeCustoms 3 жыл бұрын

I've not had that happen to me yet. Maybe warm up the sides/back a little to soften up the epoxy a bit so it's less likely to crack?

@Workoutlovr88 3 жыл бұрын

Have you tested these out for scratch resistance and heat resistance?

@ColorChangeCustoms 3 жыл бұрын

Yes, but the scratch and heat resistance really depends on the epoxy resin you use, as well as how long the resin has had to cure and harden. Some resins are more durable and have a higher heat resistance, others do not. Also, I've discovered the longer the resin has had to cure, the more durable it is. Even if the resin has cured for a week, it is still pretty soft. But after about two months or so it's pretty hard and durable. But again it really depends on the brand of resin you use and the stated manufacturer specifications.

What is the material that you use for cover the back of the tile?

@ColorChangeCustoms 3 жыл бұрын

I used automotive vinyl wrap on the back to protect it from the resin so that when the resin dried I could just peel off the wrap and the resin that went on the back of the tile would go with it as well.

This is so cool! Would this work with a regular photo or will the epoxy resin ruin the photo/ink?

@ColorChangeCustoms 3 жыл бұрын

From my experience, the epoxy resin shouldn’t ruin the photo. What I discovered about making a photo tile is to ensure each edge of the photo is sealed very well to the tile so no air bubbles can escape from under and make bubbles in the resin as it’s drying.

@@jeneeesaisquoi just make sure whatever adhesive you’re using goes to the edge under the photo then press down so it’s fully adhered along the edges.

Do you have an amazon link for the shrink vinyl you used on the back of the tile? What exactly is the shrink vinyl you used on the back of the tile called?

@ColorChangeCustoms 3 жыл бұрын

Hi there! Thank you for watching. The vinyl I used on t he back is just automotive vinyl wrap. I believe that was Vvivid gloss white I had extra laying around that I used. Here's a link on Amazon: amzn.to/38I442o
