Anyone know if this will work on a canvas? I want to collect kids thumbprints on a canvas for an art project. Thanks!

What a cute idea! Pigment inks transfer well to canvas and you will get the best results with 100% cotton canvas. You may have to press their little thumbs onto the surface with a little more pressure to optimize their print. Best wishes and hug them all for me! Lani Cruz 12 Hugs Children's Centers 650-355-8964

It works on slick plastic sheet, but you need a nice glob for full glowing effect and time to dry. So, If you painted on a more vertical surface, the glob may drip down before it is completely dry and mess up your design.

I actually asked that of a tech at B&H.; He said stretched canvas up to 3/16 thick should work on the flatbed but I was hesitant and have not tried it. I didn't want to invest in product and then find out I couldn't use it. It works great on rag and linen papers which are quite thick and similar but I didn't know how to get a stretched canvas to go through.

This won't work At all....you need a permanent marker for that...try looking for a permanent chalk marker in white

I have only used it on canvas or other art surfaces (including wood). Sorry I can help you. Perhaps the manufacturer could help you if you could advise them of material used to make the doll. Good luck.

I don't know--my experience is that it did not work for me at all, and I was trying to transfer a pattern to needlepoint canvas. It did not show up at all.

Tape. Your thumb. A large brick. A small child. Sorry for the sarcasm. Assuming you're an artist, get creative. I tape what I'm tracing to the back of my drawing paper.

Dear Customer,You can keep 2 inches in total on the left and right side of the image and 2 inches for the top and the bottom. Hence a total for 4 inches for each side of the canvas frame. Please let us know if this helps you in the best manner.Thanks,Canvas Champ

It has done well with several layers but I have not tried canvas. I am also making bags and I find it works very well with Home Dec. fabric. Hope this helps.

No it works fine. It's very good quality. Even with the good ones though, you have to use good markers. Some of the cheap ones leave residue that has to be taken off with cleaner.

Unfortunately, I can't tell if it works at all. I've tried it on canvas and leather with no noticeable difference.

It's similar to tape you might use for painting. It's not meant to be a permanent tape -- it's really designed for kids.

I'm not sure how big a one year olds hand/ foot prints are, but the frame fits 4x6" prints, so the openings are slightly smaller. To check, you could check their hand size against a photo that you have that is 4x6". If there is about 1/4" left over, you'll probably be good.We had a hard time with ink, so we scanned in our daughters hand/foot and inverted the image to make it look like an inkprint. Looks great!

I have not tried it for that purpose. It's like sticky paper. It will stick to anything between it and the mounting surface. I think with fabric you'd get wrinkles. Once the adhesive touches, it is not re-positionable. There are a number of paste adhesives useful for mounting canvas. I have had poor results with this 3M product and would recommend people avoid it.

I would not recommend it for canvas. I have used StormSure on both vinyl and canvas looking vinyl (I think they call it twill). It lasted longer on the ordinary vinyl but in the end, it did not last on either top. The StormSure eventually yellowed and then peeled up from the edges. Also, my tops had cracks that were eventually 2 inches long in a high tension area of the top. I suspect most patches will work on something small like a cigarette burn. I live in Arizona where the intense sun shines all year round and I operate my convertable top (up and down) almost daily. On the plain vinyl top I probably got five or six months out of the StormSure patch. On the twill top I got less than two months before I had to reapply more StormSure. I kept patching it with more StormSure and it looked hideous by the end of four months when I put a new top on. It didn't seem to adhere very well to the twill.

Why 2 lbs.? Is the painting framed? If you hot glue the d ring to the back of the canvas board, then the question might become, is the paper on the back of the canvas board strong enough, or will the paper separate from the board? Sounds a bit risky. It will hold for a while. If you frame the canvas board, then you will have a way to hang the art. There is probably a pre made frame that will fit your canvas board, and not be terribly expensive. If the canvas board is temporary, like something for a child's play, the hot glue solution should work. I hope this helps.

If you tried to use it on canvas I can see it holding, although it wouldn't fold, it dries like a steel plate. Also note that once you open the package the air will dry out what ever you don't use, I am trying to keep mine in a few baggies to see if that helps. Call the 800 number to be sure about the canvas. Good question.
