Is this for t-shirts? As the vinyl comes on a backing already you can just keep overlaying and pressing. I used to do this quite a lot, reduced the time a little and always did a final press to finish things off.

I also used to buy backing sheet from Dorotape and Xpres for applying printed transfers.

The Xpres stuff was fine, Dorotape I used their print and cut materials which were great through large format. Worth getting a sample of the backings.

Would you recommend clear tape?
