I recently bought a Minc Machine and have been trying all sorts of techniques to get different results. I have had a lot of learning experiences and have found really two main ways of transferring the reactive foil onto the project
Firstly you can buy the templated card with the toner ink from laser on it and place your foil on it and run it through the Minc
Secondly you can stamp with your embossing ink then emboss with clear powder and use the heat tool minimally as you then need to run it through the Minc. This option needs the lowest heat setting or it melts too much
There are various other ways of rubbing the foil and other things I have discovered on youtube but mainly embossing and toner are what seem to be the most effective for myself.
Here is a video i highly recommend
and here is an introduction to the Minc Machine
