From the Minc FAQs:
Yes! However, not all laminators are created equal! We took the basic concept of a laminator and re-engineered
it so that our customers would achieve superior results every time. In order to achieve the best quality project
(foil that is smoothly applied in the finest of detail) we had to build a machine that produced results beyond a
standard laminator. During our development stage we manufactured and tested several prototypes in order to get
it “just right.”
Some of the things that make the Minc. different include:
1. The ability to accept a true 12” sheet – perfect for scrapbooking and other large surfaces; especially for DIY-ing.
2. Four pressure rollers (instead of two, which is common in most laminators) for more evenly
distributed pressure across the entire 12”x12” sheet. Twelve-inch, four-roller laminators that are similar in design
can run as high as $250 – making our Minc. an exceptional value.
3. An interior heating element that spans the entire 12”x12” surface evenly.
4. An adjustable heat setting feature that allows for foil transfer on sensitive materials like vellum all the way to
more robust chipboard and even thin wood veneers.
Q: Can I use the Minc. with lamination supplies?
A: Yes! Please follow the guidelines below:
1. When using standard 3 MIL laminating pouches from an office supply store make sure you place the Minc. on a
heat setting of 3. There is no need to use the Minc. carrier sheet when laminating pouches are being used. Insert
your item into the laminating pouch and feed through the Minc. opening.
2. When using standard 5 MIL laminating pouches from an office supply store make sure you place the Minc. on a
heat setting of 3. There is no need to use the Minc. carrier sheet when laminating pouches are being used. Insert
your item into the laminating pouch and feed through the Minc. opening.
3. DO NOT USE A HEAT SETTING HIGHER THAN A 3 WITH THE 3 MIL. OR 5 MIL. LAMINATING POUCHES
