There are some very cool color laser transfer papers that are "self weeding". This type of paper has a two part pressing process in which adhesive is only present where toner has been laid down on the paper. First the transfer paper is printed. It is then pressed with the adhesive paper. The adhesive transfers to the paper only where toner is present. This type of paper is designed for use with a pneumatic heat press. It applies 60 pounds of pressure or more during pressing.

1. Basic Introduction To
Heat Transfer Papers

2. There are some very cool color laser transfer papers that are "self weeding". This
type of paper has a two part pressing process in which adhesive is only present
where toner has been laid down on the paper. First the transfer paper is printed. It
is then pressed with the adhesive paper. The adhesive transfers to the paper only
where toner is present.This type of paper is designed for use with a pneumatic heat
press. It applies 60 pounds of pressure or more during pressing.

3. You can use an iron with many consumer grade heat transfers and
achieve good results. Use the highest heat settings and press firmly
down on the iron as you move it around.Heat it well and uniform
while keeping good pressure on the iron.

4. If you are able to use a heat press it will improve the results of any paper
greatly.Instant, uniform, consistent heat applied with the pressure of the
heat press will work best. The heat press will be able to maintain high
heat settings of 350 to 375 degrees Fahrenheit while pushing the transfer
into the knit of the garment fabric. You can produce some really nice
quality garments with a heat press using transfers.

5. There are also transfer papers that are used with screen printed designs. The design is printed in
reverse, just as computer generated transfers. They are also printed in reverse with respect to
printing directly on a garment. For instance, the white under base would be printed last. An
adhesive, in powder form, is applied to the wet plastisol transfer ink and is then semi cured. The ink
will set with the adhesive powder and be fully cured when pressed onto the garment in the heat
press.

6. There are literally hundreds of heat transfer suppliers online. Just Google
"heat transfer papers" and you will have to research which supplier is
best for you. Be aware there are many companies trying to sell you an
entire business or set up. Just remember it takes more than a kit to be
successful at selling customized garments.
