HOT FOILING WITH HOTFOIL STAMPS
Accessories needed:
• Hotfoil Stamp
• Heat activated foil
• Cardstock
1.Turn the mains power switch on for your foiling machine. A red light will come on when
plugging in. With your Heating Platform connected to your base unit, when you press
the button on the base unit the red light will commence to flash on and off. This light will
then turn green once it reaches working temperature ( this will take approximately 5 – 6
minutes ). The machine will automatically switch off after the machine is left unused for
over 25 minutes ( The red indicator light will come on ).
2. Please note that the heating platform will maintain a maximum temperature of
approximately 90°C / 194°F as it has a built in automatic thermostat.
3. Lift up the Heating Platform clear protector lid. Place your Hotfoil Stamp (facing
upwards) on the black non slip surface mat. Close the Heating Platform clear protector
lid.

heats up prepare your cardstock and cut your heat activated foil to desired size in
preparation for your Hotfoil Stamp.
5. Lift up the Heating Platform clear protector lid and place the heat activated foil on top
with the coloured side of the foil facing down.
6. Place card stock, or your card or other desired material presentation side down on top
of your desired Hotfoil Stamp. Place a shim (piece of large cardstock) over your project.
7. Close the Heating Platform clear protector lid, remove it from the base unit and place
the platform into the opening of your cutting machine. Wind through as per normal.
NOTE: YOU ONLY NEED A VERY SLIGHT AMOUNT OF PRESSURE, IF YOU HAVE
TOO MUCH PRESSURE YOU WILL DAMAGE YOUR HEATING PLATFORM.

or desired item.
9. Remove the foil from the surface of the desired material and your foiled letterpress
image is now complete.
