Over burning issues resolved

With the new formulation of Classis Spirit using a highly sensitive wax transfer layer, this newly revised carrier is designed to reduce the over burning issues - where the background of the paper burns along with the design area - fine lines and sharp results are now available for Classic Spirit at lower setting's than 10.

Lower Burn Speeds

The new Spirit Paper formula with the highly sensitive transfer layer requires faster imaging speeds to avoid background over burning - maximum speed of 10 is now common - the new HiRes carrier reduces the burn speed in Thermal-Copiers back to 6-7.

Approved for use in A4 Thermal-Copiers

Problems with homemade carriers

Patchy results, faint edges, graining, blurring, jams and melting . . .there's a long list of problems we hear all the time.

It's not the light tattoo copiers use to make a spirit stencil - it's a high frequency IR reacting with the carbon in the design, so if your plastic absorbs the IR wavelengths you get poor results.

Pictured right is a homemade carrier taped together with faint edges - caused by the plastic absorbing the IR, the further from the middle the fainter the IR and it's not evenly absorbed.

HiRes Carriers are tested

The professional grade polycarbonate allows the IR to pass through onto your classic spirit paper to provide sharp results.

Solid designs, fine lines and consistent copies is what your after and what a HiRes Carrier will provide.

Don't piece together 2 pieces of plastic at home, it may be cheaper, but that's not how Thermal-Copiers work and you will receive poor quality results and waste both your artwork and the spirit paper.

Worse still, you may stick/ jam the carrier onto the glass roller with tape that isn't heat resistant (and melts) causing serious damage to the machine.

HiRes carriers use high temperature rated Kapton Tape that will not melt, even if the carrier gets stuck.

Protective film layer - remove before first use.

A protective green film is applied on the carrier during manufacture and may remain during shipping to protect the surface from marks/ scratches.

If the inside of the carrier still contains the protective film layer (a green colour), a warning sticker will be applied to the protective film layer. The protective film layer must be removed prior to first use. No warning sticker = no protective film to remove.

To remove, peel using your fingernail in the bottom corner of the carrier.
Do not use knives or sharp objects that will scratch the carrier surface.
