can perfect medium pad be used with embossing powder and a heat tool??

Yes, it is similar to a Versamark ink pad, staying wet to give you time to add embossing powder and heat.

No, I haven't used it for metal embossing, but have used it for embossing paper such as card stock and water color paper. I didn't seem to have any problem. It could be the differences for the surface, the amount of pressure needed to emboss metal instead of paper, or the thickness of the metal that is being embossed. Also some people my just need larger tools than others. Sorry, I can't be of more help.

I bought them to be used with a metal stamp so I don't know if they would work with an embossed.

Is this embosser able to emboss thicker materials such as leather? Also, does the embosser come with letters and numbers to make custom imprints

As long as what you have is in good condition, then yes. This is a complete kit. See my review for a frugal suggestion on avoiding the need for a pad.

Not really...it is made to emboss plastic cards similar in size and shape to credit cards...so any other shape or material might pose an unresolvable problem!!!

Should work... unless overly soft, it does not seem to need a lot of pressure from the heated anvil to the transfer grain paper when setting the product to the surface. Repeated thin layers seem to be key to getting good results from my brief experience with this repair kit. They give you some practice matieral in the kit too so can experiment with that first. Good luck!

I would assume it would, Just need to find the correct polishing compound. Would use the black pad with a mild polish first, and if needed, then switch to buff majic. Pro-polish should help to resore the color and remove light oxidation.

As with any arbor press, you would need a base plate and the appropriate tools to punch, emboss, cut, etc. This is a small unit with a footprint of about 4" X 9" and is very light weight. If you want a larger unit with some mass to it, a cheaper, basic arbor press would probably serve you well.

All of sizzix dies are able to be used on the big shot. You can also use the embossing folders as well. Hope that helps.

I'm not 100% sure. I imagine it would give it a smoky or hazy look. Might even bleed. It might work with a tight mesh. You might be better off going with a low temp heat press.

I wish my memory was as good as yours. I felt for continuing use that the medium setting was fine. I thought the High setting was OK when you first put it on, but that it did get quite warm. Of course this is subjective, my hot might be your medium, but for the price I think it is an all around good pad.

Hi, I just looked up the Eclips machine and from what I can tell these embossing folders likely won't work with it. It looks like the Eclips is a shape cutting machine, not an embossing machine. I hope that answers your question.Thank you and good luck!

I purchased EGP Self inking re-inking fluid - black from amazon.com to re-ink the pad. This ink is made for self-inking stamps.

I'm sorry, I don't have a clue, I only use it for sponging and embossing.. I haven't baked it yet... but now I might! Good luck and thanks for asking.

Well, I have used Sissix and Spellbinders. Sometimes you doi need to add some extra shims but it does work. I really does make this easy. The large plate sizes are good because you can use several sizes of dies and embossing folders. You can also place several dies at one (depending on their sizes). I really like mine. -You can watch videos on YouTube for use ideas.
