Textile Vinyl for Hen Shirts!
Re: Textile Vinyl for Hen Shirts!
We often get asked to do shirts for Hen shirts - these are likely to be wear once, maybe twice shirts so I'm not inclined to us a premium cost vinyl.
Hot Pink is the vinyl colour I need.
Where do you guys buy your textile vinyl for such use?
Cheers
John

I always use Xpres but I appreciate it's not the cheapest. Usually do everything with SuperFlex but recently worked with the new Ultra Cut Turbo and it's brilliant, presses in 3 seconds at lower temp.

Forgot to say, customer wanted shocking pink (usually uses baby pink) and the Turbo is very shocking!
Re: Textile Vinyl for Hen Shirts!
the difference in price is hardly worth the hassle of having 2 types of stock, - and extra time weeding, different pressing times, - my staff hate bad vinyl, - i never bought cheap again - thou a scrap of it still occasionally crops up in the bits draw - and we still curse it!

Re: Textile Vinyl for Hen Shirts!
There's quite a difference in price between MDP and Xpres.
Is there quite a difference in its application - the description of MDP General textile vinyl seems to tick the boxes
We have a large design (usual sort of thing for hen shirts) to go on 14 black shirts.

Re: Textile Vinyl for Hen Shirts!
I will look at changing my flex over, i have been using the 123 from magic touch, but now hate the feel and the thickness of the stuff compared to others (the yellow feels as thick as the t shirt itself), i can see frustration ahead when i forget which is the new and which is the old, but i need to change over will give MDP a go as they get such good endorsements on here
