Description

This hand foiling tool allows you to quickly apply 5mm foil to glass pieces. Hand foilers make foiling effortless! Use it to accurately centre the foil onto the edge of the glass pieces. About the size of a pen, the hand foiler applies foil as fast as you draw it around the glass, and it separates the paper backing at the same time.

To Use

Remove all oil from glass and grind it so that the foil will stick.

Insert foil into the opposite end of Roller through the slot. After inserting into the slot, peel back foil approximately 3″ inches from the paper. Remove 1″ of the paper backing and back through until the paper is showing on the other side of the slot. Then proceed to pull the foil up to the other end towards the Roller. Guide foil underneath the roller. Now the paper backing should easily separate when you begin to foil your glass.

Grasp the foiler leaving your thumb free. Insert the edge of glass piece between the guides on the underside of the tool.

It is important to hold the foiler stationary while rotating the piece of glass.   KEEP ROLLER PRESSED AGAINST EDGE OF GLASS WITH EVEN PRESSURE DURING ENTIRE APPLICATION.

Tips: You can mount your foiler to a table edge using a c-clamp.  This allows you to be hands-free from holding the foiler.
