I appreciate the laminated advice. I was curious with my own. I wondered if I had to buy ANOTHER machine just to laminate a few items. Worth a try. Thanks☺️
Lol I know how to do this but I still wanted to watch your video, ( I love all your videos) you explained perfectly! Shared with a few people already 🤗🤗🤗 hmmm I might be laminating with my Minc
Aaaaaaaah!!! I've been hoping this would come out, soon!!! You weren't joking about fun stuff coming while you get ready to move! Best of luck and smooth packing, Jesenia!
I just ordered my minc. This video answers many questions. Thank you can't wait to try it! Also... What color is your nail polish?! It's perfect for this video! ❤️
Laminator are great but the size of things you can put through the Minc is what makes it amazing. I don't want to be stopped from foiling something just bc it won't fit, so I'm thinking I need the Minc rather than a regular laminator. Unless I can find one with more than a 6-inch slot.
If you get the black toner on your plastic sheet, I heard that it comes off with acetone nail polish remover. Might be worth a try on an old one. Very nice tips, TY.
How do you avoid your whole paper coming out with the foil transferee on to it? I’m ruining many sheets because they keep coming out with literally the whole foil on the paper. I have used settings 2 3 and 4 and same results 😫
The foil should only be sticking to toner. Perhaps your printer is leaving residue on your paper? If so you can try cleaning it (directions are usually on your printer manufacturers site) or try a different print quality setting. Some printers have lower quality or toner saver options that may help deposit less ink. Hope that helps
I've wanted to buy one but am afraid of the terrible reviews...so many of them! They swear it stops working in a short time and show videos of them smoking and melting!! Yet I still want one. I don't know either if the company is very good at customer service. A dilemma. I'm curious why they don't advertise it's laminating capabilities because that was the other thing holding me back. I sure didn't want 2 machines. Yet it sounds more than capable. Basically it sounds like a laminator with temperature settings. And pretty:) I'm all about the pretty.
Great video! I would love to have one of these minc machines so I could do my own foil. Instead of printing the color on an inkjet and the black on a laser printer could you print both in the laser? Or would the foil stick to color printed with a laser printer?
If laminating a size I’d a bookmark, do you cut the laminating sheet to size of bookmark before putting in cover sheet and feeding through minc? Thank you.
Does your Minc really releases the feed so fast like in the video at 23:00? Mine feeds up so slow, I wonder if there's a setting for that? 🙂 Thank you, hope to hear from you
Hi, Heidi! I love your video! Just learned about foil laminating. Want to get a unit, but the link takes me to a 12" size unit, and the one in your video looks much larger. Can you help?
Hi! I have never used foil before but would like to know more about the process. I have a laminator but I can see you use special sheets to hold your foil and card before putting it through the laminator. Can you tell me what it is made of and where I can purchase them? Thanks for a fantastic tutorial.
Do you think regular laminator can foil then? And would you be able to foil in a laminator and last question can you use these foil sheets in a laminator?
Hello. Do you have a video how to foil download stickers from etsy? If you don't have - it will be good to explain for the begging planner people ( like me )
Thank you for your reply! I bought some from amazon but the it doesn't foil very well. It leaves a lot of sports where the foil didn't adhere. I would really really appreciate it if you could recommend one. Thank you :)
megan.juliana, I have and it does not come out as well as the Minc. I have tried running the project through the laminator 4 or 5 times and still the same result, some spots not foiled or the edges of the wording is frayed and not straight. I have not tried the plastic folders she was using so I don’t know if that makes a difference. I think because the laminator doesn’t get as hot as the Minc that could be the issue. But to me since I’m the only one using the foiled stickers it’s not as big of an issue.
I use the same foil....I use the mini Minc machine...my foil still doesn't come out like that. I've tried different settings, I've tried running through multiple times, letting it cool, even running a rolling pin over it. Not really working 100% :(
I recommend trying different paper. Some papers foiled better than others - it can be a bit of trial and error until you find something that works well with both your printer and the machine. Also - be sure on your laser printer not to use the save toner option. It will use less ink which I find isn’t good for fouling
I too have the same problem as Amy Cain, I have had my Minc Machine over 12 months and I can never get a complete foil done, there is always gaps. I go to Office Works to get my laser printing done. very disappointed in the whole thing
I have has things printed at a Staples and the toner they use doesn’t work very well with foiling. I don’t know why but that’s the experience I have had. Hope this helps you 😃
Quick question about the double printing and foiling - does the second printing actually print over the first foiling or does the foil kind of resist the toner? It's a tiny bit difficult to see if the pink was on the gunmetal or not. Thanks!!
You can’t foil on top of foil if that makes sense so the pink doesn’t go on top of the gunmetal The artwork is designed though to not overlap so it’s not printing on top of the first print. Not sure if that could happen if your design does overlap. Hope that helps some
So, I've tried to laminate 10mil with my MINT and it works perfectly on 3. Thanks for the outstanding video
Fantastic video you helped my 14 year old daughter so much 🙏⭐️⭐️💛🙌☺️
I just bought a Minc and this video is really helping me understand how to use it. Thank you!
Great video and very informational. Thanks to your feed back and tips and tricks I will definitely be getting one of these for my planner stickers❤️
Thank you so much! This video was very helpful for me! I was wondering why the foil wouldn't stick to my brother printer ink. Very helpful!!

THANKS ever so much. I wondered if I could laminate with a minc.
What kind of printer do you use ?
You are awesome for doing this video! I had been wondering how everyone was doing foil!
This is so helpful thank you for making this live all the foil so pretty.
Aaaaaaaah!!! I've been hoping this would come out, soon!!! You weren't joking about fun stuff coming while you get ready to move! Best of luck and smooth packing, Jesenia!
The waste foil could also be used on toner sheets to get more from the foil. Even have coloured toner sheets now.
I just ordered my minc. This video answers many questions. Thank you can't wait to try it! Also... What color is your nail polish?! It's perfect for this video! ❤️
May i ask where did you bought your machine?
OMG!! I need this in my life!!! Now to see what kind of printer I have...
Please bring the bookmark digitalis to your shop they are gorgeous!
Great video! I just ordered this machine today!
Thank you for this. Answered a lot of questions for me. 🌺
Now I’m going to get this machine!
Laminator are great but the size of things you can put through the Minc is what makes it amazing. I don't want to be stopped from foiling something just bc it won't fit, so I'm thinking I need the Minc rather than a regular laminator. Unless I can find one with more than a 6-inch slot.

Thanks for the tip! I’ll definitely give that a try
What heat setting do you use to laminate?
I plan to make my buissness stickers like this thanks so much

THANK YOU for this information.
This was extremely helpful! Thank you 😊
Great can’t wait to try it out, I will have the foil out I have printer and laminator thanks Shirley
Can you plz tell me I do all this method but my foil stick all over the paper
Awesome, thanks for sharing!!

Great video. Thank you.
My new minc machine is leaving gaps all over the card stock. I've tried all the settings. Does anyone else have this issue?
Love this video learned so much I have tons of questions but thank you sooo much this was very informative
Thank you so much for doing this video
💕
How do you manage to print things in steps? Can you please explain your process (what app fo you use, steps etc please)
Hi pls let me know the settings for printing the black 2nd time from the laser printer
If laminating a size I’d a bookmark, do you cut the laminating sheet to size of bookmark before putting in cover sheet and feeding through minc? Thank you.
Machine does come with a starter roll
Thanks!
Awesome video! Thank you for sharing. :)
Have you done foiling with clear glossy labels?
You can clean that pouch with acetone
Just bought one.
Thanks for this! Loved it. Does the foil easily scratch off?
Does your Minc really releases the feed so fast like in the video at 23:00? Mine feeds up so slow, I wonder if there's a setting for that? 🙂 Thank you, hope to hear from you
There’s no link for the clear paper (vellum) you printed on. Am I overlooking it?
Hi, Heidi! I love your video! Just learned about foil laminating. Want to get a unit, but the link takes me to a 12" size unit, and the one in your video looks much larger. Can you help?

Thanks for a fantastic tutorial.
They come with the machine but you can find them on amazon
I have a minc. but it doesn't perform quite as well as yours.... womp womp... :(
Can you use any heat reactive foil like We are memory keepers foil?
Do you think regular laminator can foil then? And would you be able to foil in a laminator and last question can you use these foil sheets in a laminator?
What laser printer are you using to print? Because I’m using a color laser and the foil doesn’t stick to the paper . Thank you!
Time to finally ya my mind. What brand of transparency do you use?
Do you use this to make foiled stickers? I’m trying to figure out if I should foil then use a silhouette to cut or vise versa. But great video!
If you want a better quality print you may need to check your preferences and make sure you do not us ink saver mode
Ok I really got a jam how do I get it unjammed
Great video! What printer are you using?
Hello. Do you have a video how to foil download stickers from etsy? If you don't have - it will be good to explain for the begging planner people ( like me )
You can foil sticker paper the same way ☺️
Good for a3 papper?
Can you share what kind of printers you have? There are so many options and I'm just looking for a good quality one for personal use.
We have a cheap HP,
But it sat for 5 yrs not being used. It took
off with out a hitch!
Will the Harry Potter page markers that you laminated be in your shop?! 😍 I need them!!! 💜
Armywife_laffoon I hope so! 🤞🏻
Can you use sticker paper?? I don't know if you answered this already.
Yup!
Do I have to get a minc machine to use the transfer folders ?
The transfer folders can be purchased separately, but I have not used them with any other machines so I’m uncertain how they would perform
Hi where did you get the Harry Potter book mark
I drew it
Does all this mean a HP setup is coming?! Because I neeeeeed it to happen 👀
Maybe 👀 lol

Hello! Where can I get the vellum you are using? Thank you!
Amazon sells vellum
Thank you for your reply! I bought some from amazon but the it doesn't foil very well. It leaves a lot of sports where the foil didn't adhere. I would really really appreciate it if you could recommend one. Thank you :)
Great video! Would you mind linking the printers you use? Thanks!
They’re so old they don’t even make them anymore 🤣
So helpful! Now I can by my MINC and foil away! Thanks for a great video
😍😍😍
I want a mink now!!! Yay!!
It’s really fun ☺️
Martinez.31n they are on clearance at stores(Tuesday mornings ) if you have any near you.
The Sticker Diva thank you!
The Sticker Diva what store are u referring too
Karen Guest 👀 up above
has anyone tried foiling with a laminator?

Aw man I don’t have a laser printer oh well pretty nonetheless
Copy centers use laser printers so you can always take things there to print 🤷🏻♀️
The Planner Sophisticate hey GREAT suggestion !
The Planner Sophisticate at home or a copy center do they have to be printed in just black ink?
I have has things printed at a Staples and the toner they use doesn’t work very well with foiling. I don’t know why but that’s the experience I have had. Hope this helps you 😃
Does your Minc smoke or smell like something is burning??
I've read reviews and people have made comments like that! Haha so I'm just curious if it's true!
Omg no! Lol
I have heard of that happening with overuse. The minc is intended for home crafting so I think if it’s overworked it might not fare well 😳
What printer do you use ?
Thanks for this video! ...just told hubbie I need a minc n small laserjet 😬
Ahhhhhhh! Just bout one today at Tuesday Morning. Thanks for sharing.
Quick question about the double printing and foiling - does the second printing actually print over the first foiling or does the foil kind of resist the toner? It's a tiny bit difficult to see if the pink was on the gunmetal or not. Thanks!!
