Making & Firing Laser-Toner Decals
By Maggie Mae Beyeler
Traditionally, ceramic decals have been thought of as low-fire, mostly color images, that have been silk-screened onto decal paper using china paint. More recently developed laser-toner decals on the other hand, are more versatile; they can be used at any firing temperature- and at any stage of the ceramic process- and do not require any special knowledge or experience with silk-screening. This versatility allows the artist to make decals using their own images without the cost of having them commercially produced.
