Abstract
Improved wax paper with thermal transfer stamps may allow for more effectively transferring detailed stamps onto objects. The wax paper may include a paper layer having a porosity of at least 3000 Gurley seconds and a wax layer with a thickness of at most six pounds per ream of the paper. Stamps may be printed face down on the wax layer, with the underside of the ink coated with heat-activated adhesive. By pressing the converted wax paper onto an object, applying a heating element to the paper side of the converted wax paper, and removing the object from contact with the converted wax paper, a stamp may more completely and reliably transfer onto the object with levels of detail not previously achievable, while cutting down on negative effects of wax bleed and paper tears.
