Gelli Arts 4" Round Gel Printing Plate

Nice tool for anyone wanting to do collage, make cards etc

Gelli Arts Products are the best for my prints. Wonderful product and good pricing.

Love my Gelli Plate.

The possibilities are limitless. I'm having so much fun mixing and layering colors. I can't wait to try transferring pictures. It is well worth the money. In fact, I just purchased 2 more smaller ones.

The original Gel plate in a size to get the maximum coverage with 9x12 papers.

overall this is an awesome product. I learned how to use them using youtube videos. but here is what they do not tell you and these are very important points. if you don't know these points you will ruin the plate completely your first time out. #1 do not lay the Gelli plate over any kind of graphite, this includes line drawings. I placed a pencil drawing to use as a guide and the plate absorbed the graphite completely (see photo). I mean the entire drawing imprinted on the plate and it can not be cleaned (that drawing is on the gel plate not the paper and its there for good. I used soap and water with a strong cloth and it did nothing but wear away the glossy surface making it unsalvageable.. ruined. #2 acrylics dry very very fast when applied. I mean instantly and the surface is impossible to work on. none of the videos I watched recommended a retardant which I later found is the key. Direct acrylic will dry fast and the thinner the layer (recommended) the faster it will dry. you watch the videos but they aren't telling you this key point. #3 if you try to use say a soft tool to "write" into the dry acrylic it will scratch the surface. it skips over the painting perforates the gel plate. I thought that if i worked over the dry acrylic paint with a spritz of water it would loosen the dry paint. it only makes it worse and printing to paper results in an ugly print. #4 please use acrylic water based printing inks. they have a much longer standing time. acrylic paint, all of them only work with a retardant. and a lot of it too. otherwise the plates are quite nice. I just purchased my third one as the first two were ruined beyond salvaging. my fault but I know better now.

This a great brand for geli plates- I used it right out of the package with no prep- it works really well. And I like the 9x12 size because that’s the size of the paper I usually use

All crafters should have this tool. Great for making your own paper for diy crafts. Check out YouTube or Pinterest for great ideas.

Bra Gelli plate. Hållbar och enkel att använda.

Gut in der Handhabung, gut zu reinigen, leider unverschämt teuer.

Pour les pros et amateurs d'activités manuelles, cette plaque d'impression est super intéressante et moins chère que sur les sites spécialisés d' arts. Je recommande.

Excellent

A placa Gelli Arts perfeita, dá para fazer lindas monotopias.
