PURPOSE:To eliminate a ground color coloring process to an object to be printed and to attain to shorten a printing process and to conserve equipment cost, in a transfer printing method utilizing liquid pressure, by preliminarily adding a pigment to an activator for activating a transfer pattern. CONSTITUTION:A film 2 having a transfer pattern 1 formed thereto is coated with an activator 3 to which a pigment for a ground color is preliminarily added to form an activator coating layer. In this case, the activator 3 is pref. constituted from a composition consisting of 5-20% of a resin component such as alkyd resin, 0-20% of an extender such as barium carbonate, 5-35% of a pigment such as titanium dioxide or iron oxide and 0-60% of a solvent such as butyl carbitol acetate or butyl cellosolve and applied to the surface to be printed of a film 2 by a roll coater. As mensioned above, the film 2 having a coating layer 3' formed thereto is closely contacted with an object 6 to be printed to form a transfer printed surface 1' based on the coating layer 3'. |
