HOT FOILING WITH TODO™
Foil stamping is the application of metallic foil to paper where a heated die is
stamped onto the foil, making it adhere to the surface to leave the design of the
die on the paper. This technique has never been simpler now that you have your
TODO machine!
To hot foil you will need to switch on your TODO machine. When you switch it on
the centre metal panel on the base plate will slowly heat up. This takes
approximately 10-12 minutes to get to temperature (the indicator light will light up
green when the plate is at the correct temperature).
1. Ensure the roller mechanism is to the side of the machine.
2. Flick the switch to the on position to start the machine warming.
3. When the green indicator light is illuminated, place your foiling stamp onto the
metal panel in the centre of the plate.
WARNING: The foiling stamp will become hot very quickly. Always avoid touching
this with your fingers, use tool provided as explained on next page.
4. Place your foil on top of the stamp – the foil needs to go coloured side towards
the stamp – and place your material for foiling on top of this. Place your A
Plate over the top.
5. Adjust the pressure. The exact pressure will depend on the manufacturer of the
stamp and the weight of material. See settings table on page 15 for guidelines.
6. Turn the handle until the roller mechanism has gone over the complete stamp.
Roll the mechanism to the opposite end of the machine, or back to the start and
remove the stamp and material from the machine.
