Awesome job #beyondordinary
Thanks!
I love this job
Ayman Saleh You did an awesome job, well done & keep up the great work, you're working for an awesome company! 👍🏼😄
good video, thanks for explaining each one
Hi and thanks for another great educational tool for us decorators! Love all your products, Stahls really does it right. One request though - in future can you take a bit more time showing closeups of the transfers both before & after application? We're seeing most of this at a distance and in the very little time you spend showing any closeups, we just can't really get a good idea of what these items look like in detail. (And in the last application in this video, you didn't show us any closeup at all 😳)
When I say closeups, I'm talking camera 6" away from the product please, scanning slowly across it, as thats the only way we'll be able to see any detail.
Hope that tip helps you improve your presentations and I look forward to watching more upcoming videos from you, thanks and Go Stahls! 💪🏼💥👍🏼😄
Thanks for the input! We appreciate the tip!
What if it's nylon & spandex mix?
What about fabrics with nylon 80% & spandex 20% mixed? What solution for that type of fabric seen in cycling bibs for example. thank you in advance.
Hi There - Please check out this chart for fabric/ material combinations: www.stahls.com/heat-transfer-material-fabric-chart
This was a truly informative video. Thank you! What printing do you suggest for transferring 1 color foil (shiny finish) to nylon&spandex leggings (just parts of the leggings, not the whole leggings)?
Hi,
I used the Premium Plus on some stretchy yoga pants made of 90% Polyester and 10% Spandex. It feels nice, it stretches with the fabric. The thing is that after the pants are dressed and therefore stretched, the vinyl wrinkles and not coming back to how it was. Is that normal?
What’s another machine that I can use to print on to that material that is not a heat press
Very informative, can aqua tru be used for cotton and polycotton tshirts?! Thanks n hope to hear from you

How do you print the screen print transfer on the carrier? Can we do it ourselves?
No. Screen printed transfers are designs that are screen printed directly onto a carrier paper versus directly on a garment. The artwork is uploaded and the transfers are ordered through Transfer Express. Visit transferexpress.com/heat-applied-transfers/screen-printed-transfers for more information.
Do you shipping to india
Yes. Please reach out to stahlsinternational@stahls.com for information or visit www.stahlsinternational.com/eng/index.php
