StandStill Transfer Film and Adhesive Stencil Spray

Get the Transfer Film and Adhesive Stencil Spray from STANDSTILL in one convenient package!

The STANDSTILL Transfer Film is a revolutionary new way of applying complex designs onto your clients that's faster and more precise than using traditional transfer paper. The transparent, flexible tattoo film is perfect for easy positioning even over difficult parts of the body, like the elbows and knees, and it can be repositioned without leaving marks.

It creates high definition stencils that allow you to work layer by layer directly onto skin. Unlike traditional transfer paper, the film is applied to the skin and then tattooed through. As the film is water soluble, you should use ointment while tattooing and dry dab excess ink with a paper towel. The film is compatible with inkjet printers.

The STANDSTILL Adhesive Stencil Spray has been designed to work specifically with the STANDSTILL Transfer Film. It gives your stencil a secure and long-lasting hold without the harshness and substantial residue often left by traditional sprays. It's particularly useful on large, curved areas where slipping and smudging is a common issue.

Tested by experienced tattoo artists, STANDSTILL products are organic, eco-friendly, vegan, sustainable and hypoallergenic. The Transfer Film is made from medical-grade PVA and the Adhesive Spray is made from skin-friendly and latex-free medical adhesives.

The Standstill Transfer System is ideal for a range of tattoo styles and techniques including dot work, geometric work, illustrative work, cover ups, tattoo extensions and large scale tattoos. Plus, it's ideal for tricky placements, such as when tattooing the elbows, knees, and neck.

To use:

• Print your design using an inkjet printer
• Spray a generous amount of STANDSTILL Adhesive Spray onto clean, dry skin and let it dry for a few seconds
• Place the film onto the skin, moving and adjusted if needed
• Activate the film by lightly misting from a distance with a disinfectant spray (a very fine spray nozzle is key!)
• Tattoo through the film using ointment, dry dabbing excess ink rather than wiping
• Remove by wetting a paper towel with green soap and distilled water, placing it over the film to soak for 5 seconds, then wipe away

STANDSTILL recommends that you don't begin with black ink, but a light to medium tone black. You may need to increase your power by a volt or two to compensate for the film, and the brand recommends that you practice first with dotwork and then lining.
