Went to a seminor at Grafityp yesterday what a great day. It was free and we were taught about all their t shirt vinyls and how to layer them. It was all hands on training too. Great day learn't so much well worth the visit. I would like to say thankyou to Siser and Grafityp.

did you meet Sue then?

She's been fantastic with me, really helpful. In fact Grafityp on the whole are a very friendly company indeed. I bought my printer from them and even ran up a £2000 debt with them (long story), they let me pay it off in drips, not many companies would do that, they'd send the boys around for sure.

Any tips then? I use the C Print New and the Printable Subli-Block vinyls.

Dave.

Companies that invest in helping customers, keep customers for life, sounds like they are a good company to do business, with. I love layering vinyl, and until i can have a load of my designs in plastisol at reasonable prices, its what i will continue with

i want to try layering but i'm not sure how to sort it out
the pressing side seems easy enough but how do you get each layer to be right ?

like say i had a logo jpg off a company and it was 3 dif colours how on earth do i split them into dif layers lol

i dont think you can do this in easy way :( would be handy to have it all in vector so you just send it to the cutter and job done.

Coreldraw - split them to different colour then save as a file that your cutter recognises. Then cut using your cutting program.
