Nope. Never had any real success in doing them.

On the rare occasional I do coloured/dark garments, I use flock from BMS because it's the only thing I've found that produces reliable results.

I agree with Justin. sublimation for most is one of the other ways to decorate products. is always good to have some deals for vinyl etc...
regards to Yolo, they do sell sublimation products jigsaw puzzle here

All the flex / vinyls i've used produce reliable results - you must have been buying ebay cheapy vinyl or not using the right heat/pressure ratio if its failing.

Nope, never used ebay cheapy. A couple of years back I went through many different products trying to find something that works, but I finally gave up when I'd spent more than I was comfortable with without actually finding something that was good enough (except for flock).

Ditto - never had a problem really once I had got the heat/pressure settings right (as with any product you have to test and adjust until it's right). I do dye sub and vinyl/flock/flex on a regular basis and it's good as the variety is there to bring in different customers that normally get something from the other range once they see what's available.

We just wanted to say that we did think long and hard before asking if we could advertise on the forum. We realise that the forum was primarily for sublimation but we had started to notice an increasing number of threads on heat transfer paper and vinyls. Over the years, we've found that many people start out with one method of image transfer and progress onto another. Many of our customers use multiple methods of image transfer depending on the type of image and substrate - sometimes it amazes us when they list off the equipment that they have!

Our aim is not to encourage switching from one method to another but we would like to raise awareness of the different methods and where they are most effective or useful e.g. heat transfer paper for for darks and cotton. Just like our customers, we're also always learning so it is great to be able to hear feedback and help where we can. We're always looking for new products and sometimes it is one simple request or piece of feedback that sparks an idea for a new product. We hope that we can become part of the forum and continue to support it as it goes from strength to strength.

I think is great idea to have you/your stuff/knolage on here. before I never knew your company and now i found good source for my future investments
there is so many people been asked before about puting the picture on dark tee just for the stag doo etc... transfer paper is great solution for this. so I think you suit the forum well Yolo

all the best
