If I print my dye sub artwork, and then write on that printed artwork with a pencil … will the pencil transfer to my final piece?
In this case, the final piece is coated aluminum.

No, it will likely prevent the areas covered by the pencil marks from transferring. The dye sub process is the inks becoming gasses and bonding with the polymers in the coating. Nothing about that process would cause the pencil marks to do the same.

Thanks. I was just going to make a super light alignment mark. I can live with the polymer not transferring - I just didn’t want the mark itself to be on there.

Great. I couldn’t tell from the original message if you wanted the pencil mark to transfer, or not.
