I know that at least one ink company (International Coatings www.iccink.com) makes an additive that is supposed to resist adhesion of foil. Maybe some of the other ink companies have something similar.

Now that the list is back on, here's a question for those who can answer... Is there a way (foolproof?), to use foil on a part of a multicolor print? As it is, we do use foil, but so far it was just the logo in foil, nothing else (ie. monochromic stuff) We usually print the logo using the adhesive, then heat press the foil. We've also printed plastisol (Union Inks black shimmer), then heat presses the foil with great success. So here again, I'm curious to how one would use foil as an accent in the logo successfully... Thanks!
