R850.00
- Saral Wax Free Transfer Paper is a specialized transfer paper that works like carbon paper to transfer a design from one surface to another.
- It produces waxless, greaseless, clean tracings that lay lightly on the tracing surface and are easy to erase.
- The Saral Wax Free Transfer Paper Roll measures 30cm x 3.6m.
- Blue – Primarily used for non-photographic applications such as transferring keylines, mechanicals, and paste-ups. The blue colour is specifically designed for these types of technical drawing and design tasks, as it does not interfere with photographic processes.
- The blue colour of the Saral transfer paper makes it ideal for these technical applications, as it does not show up in photographic reproductions. This allows designers and artists to easily transfer their designs without worrying about the transfer lines being visible in the final product.
Some key uses of the Blue Saral Transfer Paper include:
Transferring keylines and mechanicals for printing and publishing.
Preparing paste-ups and layout designs.
Transferring designs to surfaces without interfering with photographic processes.
Creating crisp, clean transfer lines that can be easily erased or painted over.

How to use the Saral Wax Free Transfer Paper Roll:
Make the lightest transfer line possible that you can still see.
This will make it easier to erase or remove the line later if needed.
Before using, lightly wipe the unused transfer paper with a tissue to remove any excess coating or dust, which can help prevent smudging.
When transferring the design, avoid smudging by securing the transfer paper to the surface with tape or holding it in place with your fingertips, not the palm of your hand.
If any smudging occurs, you can try lightly rubbing the area with a large eraser.
You can also carefully remove smudges using isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol and a cotton swab, but be sure to test it first on a small, inconspicuous area.
On watercolour paper, make the lightest, thinnest transfer line possible so it can be easily erased before painting.
Be very gentle when erasing to avoid damaging the paper fibers.
The transfer lines from the Saral paper will wash out of fabrics, but may brush off some fabrics like t-shirt cotton depending on the colour.
The key is to use the lightest touch possible when transferring the design to avoid smudging or leaving prominent lines that are difficult to remove.
