The transfer solution is the consumable that fixes the stencil onto the skin before tattooing, and the Blue version from the Proton airless range leaves a blue drawing, with good contrast on light and medium skin — an alternative to the classic purple transfer. The formula is water-based, alcohol-free, and the 250 ml bottle with an airless pump dispenses consistently and hygienically, without waste. It is useful for both beginner artists and studios that do many transfers daily.
Why would I choose a blue stencil over the classic purple?▾
Blue offers a different contrast compared to traditional purple: on light skin it shows very well, and on medium skin it is often more visible than purple, which can blend with the skin tone. On very dark skin, both colors can be hard to follow — there, the Pink version from the same range may be a better choice. Ultimately, stencil color remains a personal preference; many artists keep 2-3 options and choose based on the client.
Does it work with the transfer paper I already use?▾
Yes. The product is compatible with all common thermal paper types (Spirit, S8, ReproFX, and others), as well as carbon paper for manual drawing. Keep in mind that the final result also depends on the quality of the paper and the stencil printing, not just the solution.
How long does a 250 ml bottle last?▾
One bottle covers approximately 200-300 applications, meaning around 8-12 months for an active artist. The airless system dispenses in a controlled manner and allows almost full use of the contents, with no product left on the bottle walls, so waste is minimal.
Does it contain alcohol? Can I apply it right after shaving the area?▾
It does not contain alcohol — the formula is water-based and dermatologically tested, designed not to irritate freshly shaved skin. Still, apply it only on intact skin and monitor the client's reaction; at any sign of irritation, stop and clean the area.
How do I use it hygienically when I have multiple clients in the same day?▾
The basic rule: the bottle never comes into direct contact with the client. Pump the solution onto a disposable paper towel, with gloves, and apply from there to the skin; do not touch the nozzle to the skin or non-decontaminated surfaces. The advantage of the airless system is precisely that the product inside remains isolated, so the bottle can be safely used from one client to another if the exterior is wiped and handled correctly.
Do blue marks stay on the skin after the tattoo is finished?▾
No permanent marks remain. Blue stencil residue is easily cleaned at the end of the session with water and a mild soap (or a dedicated tattoo cleanser), and the color disappears completely after cleaning.
