I know, best/cheapest doesn't really work well together :)

I'm needing to buy some application tape for CAD/CUT printable (Roland BN20) textile vinyl - you know, the tape you can llft your design and press with the heat press.

Thanks

John

I use Siser's TTD easy.

If I am being really tight I can get three or four transfers out of each piece.

Really nice to peel etc etc. £41.00 ish for a 500mm roll

we sometimes use the carrier from vinyl if we have done big prints.
can use several times, thou not as sticky as proper transfere tape.
from memory its only about 20 quid for 50m roll thou ....

I have moved over to 100% Dae Ha products and find their application tape the best I have used. They have 500 and 750 wide. https://www.garmentfilms.co.uk/printable-films-c3/application-tape-500mm-p9

John, that is what I like about the Dae Ha stuff, they say up to 7 times, I would say at least 7 times, and their own vinyl has a great sticky backing, and I am using a lot less application tape as I am recycling their backing where I can.

I contacted Dae Ha via email this morning and mentioned your recommendation :)

Do you print on textile vinyl at all aka Roland BN-20? Not sure whether to go sticky or really sticky so asked for a sample.

Cheers

John
