The Basics Of Gelli Printing!!!! A whole series of tips about what gelli printing is all about, or #gelliprintingfordummies
A Brayer is basically a rolling pin for your paint! It’s a pretty essential tool for gel printing so make sure you grab one at the same time as your gel plate.
You can either have a soft or hard brayer, and while it doesn’t really matter which type you get, size definitely matters,
You can get tiny through to LARGE sizes, and this does make a difference, so get the size to match the size of your get plate. Using a too small brayer on a large gel plate makes for brayer lines which can get frustrating☹
When rolling your paint, don’t go back and forth, roll down, pick up, and roll again in the same direction. This way you get the entire toller covered in paint and it gets spread evenly over your plate
Rolling a clean roller over your wet plate will pick up your paint, so if your adding an extra layer of paint, make sure the first layer is nice and dry.
Cleaning is easy, baby wipes or warm soapy water to keep them clean and happy!!
Stay tuned for part 5!!
