I've been playing with my MINC which I bought recently, I gave up on my cheap laminator which gave me very variable and mainly poor results and bought one on sale. I saw some videos of a MINC 'reactive' paint and spray from CHA and started playing. I used the various matte mediums I had on hand and did some screenprints (good) onto a PL card and patterned paper, some painting (variable), and also stamping (poor image quality). You need to let all of these dry fully before foiling. I used my heat tool. Best Screenprints: Mod Podge Matte Waterbased Sealer Best 'Writing': Martha Stewart Glue Pen - writing a bit slower than I normally do. Inspired by @onescrappydoctor and her BPC class about the MINC The key is letting it dry fully before you foil. Foil - MINC brand & DecoFoil comparable results Card base - SC PL/Documenter Cards Thanks to Nat Elphinstone's BPC class on MINC tips, I'd previously had good success with the Martha Stewart Glue Pen - much better than the brandname MINC Toner Pen. I also did some painting, and found you need to have a slow, full brush, I was moving too quickly in most samples. Hope this inspires some more playing!

I know what I'm buying tomorrow! Thanks for sharing! What a great way to use foil scraps. Wish I had that glue pen right now.

So the foil fuses to glue as well as toner? I hadn't heard that yet. How cool! Karen

Awesome information! I have matte medium from the art store in a fine liner bottle. I'm going to experiment
