The foil transfer printing process is used to apply a metallic or colored foil onto a surface with the purpose of making a decorative or reflective design. During the process, a specialized printer is used for transferring the design onto a foil sheet, which is heat sensitive in nature. After this step, the foil sheet is placed onto the surface for printing and heating using a press or iron. This action activates the adhesive on the foil & transfers the design onto the surface, thereby completing the process of foil transfer printing.
