Hi, Absolutely. It works with any fabric that can be ironed over, such as sweatshirts, hoodies, t-shirts... even pillowcases, table cloth etc. Just make sure to read the label on the back to ensure it can be ironed. Fabrics can be Cotton, Viscose, Polyester, Silk etc Thanks for the comment!
This is awesome and such a helpful video. I can't wait to make personalised welcome bags with our personalised logo transferred onto them :) Thank you!
Hi, we recommend that you adhere to a few simple suggestions. Turn the shirt outside in and use 40 degree wash with a full spin cycle. There's also a video in our channel with further suggestions. Thanks!
Using a layer in between might seem to help in transferring the image at first, however it will likely be a very weak transfer. It will come off easily and won't survive even one wash. Transfer works well when you apply the precise required amount of heat for the required duration. The heat / duration ensures that the ink is released from the carrier and embedded into the fabric. Try and source a different material to use. I hope this helps a bit. Thanks for the comment.
+Photo Paper Direct Hi, Our transfer paper, when peeled hot, immediately after ironing, will give a matt finish on the shirt. Gloss finish is possible with the same paper when it is peeled cold, if required. Thanks for the comment.
Hi, Without knowing the precise brand you have used, my suggestion is to cut as much as you can around the image prior to the transfer as we explain in 1:06 min. I hope this helps. Thanks for the comment!
@@muodis7595 Hi, did you use the silicon paper or normal copy paper? If you're using the silicon paper it shouldn't happen. If you're using normal paper, it has to be super hot when you're peeling it. We suggest using silicon paper not copy paper. Thanks for the comment!
Hi, You can. In fact, in addition to using this version we offer another version of the paper without the thermal indicators on the back which is designed for heat press machines. The lack of thermal indicators makes the heat press version slightly cheaper in price (same quality as it uses the same base paper). Thanks for your comment!
That happened to me, too. I should have stopped after I used the tissue paper. I didn't use computer paper on a 2nd t-shirt I made. Only used the tissue paper and it came out perfect.
I had the same problem - used good quality 100gsm paper and very nearly all of the design stuck to the paper and completely peeled away from the T-shirt - I had to throw the T-shirt away
@BryantDykstra Yes, you must use 'mirror' mode which should be available in your printer's settings. It is also wise to print a test on normal printer paper before using the more expensive transfer paper to ensure it came in mirror / reserve mode.
hi i printed a whole gucci sweatshirt design and it looks so fresh. the video of the whole DIY gucci look is on my channel. thanks for the tutorial. i would've burned my house down otherwise
@TheLolhackerz Yes. Any Inkjet printer with normal ink will work. If you plan to print and transfer text then the printer should have the settings of mirror / back / reverse mode. Not needed if you plan to print and transfer only an image.
@guns511 Hi, On the printer setting you have an option to print in mirror mode or to print on 'transfer paper' setting which will print in mirroring mode by default. How quickly fading happens will depend on the following. 1. The transfer has to be done with the correct heat and the correct pressure 2. Using pigment inks rather than dye will increase the longevity of the print 3. Avoid using bleaching or washing powder which contains high amounts of bleaching 15 to 20 washes in total. Thx!
im doing screen printing at school and i want to do this at home but the price of a screen print set thax soo much this is much more afordabel and ezy thx
@LookClick123 Good question. No, you do not have to start right away. Once you do decide to start the process then you need to follow the rules as we point out in the video and time is important.
Hi, The transfer is very durable provided the transfer was done correctly (enough time + heat). As well, you can simply turn the garment outside in when washing so the image does not come into contact with the machine. You can transfer to a wide range of fabrics provided the fabric / item (a hat in this case) can withstand the heat from the iron. Thanks!
Hi Sean Tazelaar, this is the most cost effective means to transfer. As to Word, it depends on the version. Best to check online / youtube. Thanks for the comment!
@divineaxel Hi, the paper also comes in A3 size (double A4 in size), however you will need an A3 printer which most people do not have. If you do not have one, you can always buy the A3 sheet and ask your local printing house to print the A3 sheet for you. Any Inkjet printer and any Ink will do, so they will likely be able to help you. I hope this helps.
Hi! i have the same question i ask from your other video regarding this matter...can i use a pigment ink instead of regular dye ink? this brand of transfer photo paper also available in the Philippines market?
@Skippy143c No, no need to wait, but there's no rush either. In fact, you can apply the silicon paper again every couple of months in case the image had faded slightly to bring its freshness back. Look at our last video 'How To Wash and Maintain T Shirt Transfer Paper ' from 2.17min for more information.
Thank you for this. Say I don't have a printer at home. How long do I have between when the image is printed on the paper and when I print on a t shirt?
@misssdrummergirl8 Around 15 to 20 washes depending on. 1. The transfer has to be done with the correct heat and the correct pressure 2. Using pigment inks rather than dye will increase the longevity of the print 3. Avoid using bleaching or washing powder which contains high amounts of bleaching I'd say that number 1 and number 3 are the most important for the durability of the transfer. Thanks for your comment.
The garment is a pair of wrestling trunks so I can't really change the material. I may test the iron on an pair and hope the instructions are just being over cautious. Thanks for your help
@Skippy143c When deglossing with normal paper, it is vital that the paper is really hot before peeling and that peeling is done immediately when the iron is removed. If it is stuck, you can reheat it (being careful about not ironing the exposed image). It is easier if you stretch the image a little before peeling. It is also possible to protect the image with silicon when ironing for the purpose of removing stuck paper. I hope this helps. Thanks for the comment!
Hi, Yes, it might work if the paper has similar properties to the silicon paper i.e grease baking paper. We had a few users using baking grease paper just fine. Thanks for the comment.
Hi janeil quilloy, transfer paper is the name of the product. Some transfer papers are suitable for use with an iron and some with heat press. Some like the Photo Paper Direct are suitable for use with either. I hope this helps. Thanks for the comment.
@aldoguzman97 Thanks for the comment. The light transfer paper leaves a thin ALMOST transparent light layer around the complete transfer. On light fabrics it is invisible, however on dark fabrics you may see it. With the dark transfer paper what you see is what you get and it does not leave this fine light layer hence designed for dark fabrics (slightly more expensive paper). We have a video on this channel on dark transfer paper where we explain in more detail about the differences. Thanks!
I let my daughter watch this video to make a Valentine tablecloth. The colors on the actual tablecloth were very dull and night bright. Is it because the fabric was 50/50 polyester/cotton blend? How can I get the colors to iron on bright like on your instruction video? We would love to make some other projects since your video is so easy to follow. Thank you for making this video.
@xAzNBruce34 Hi, It is important that the paper is superhot as it cools down in a millisecond. Alternatively, if you can't find a silicon paper, a brown teflon paper will work just as well. I hope this helps!
@longykid If you are printing an image without text, mirror or non mirror mode is not important. The result will look the same. If you are printing text, you need to print in reverse / mirror mode. Not sure about the precise brand of transfer paper you bought. What do they suggest?
Hi, Using a tumble dryer is recommended. The quicker the fabric dries, the better the transfer will hold long term, just make sure to dry it when the garment is turned inside out. Thanks for the comment.
My paper instructions that came in my pack say not to flip my image and to peel before ironing and iron on face up using the silicon paper, but also refers to this video, so which method should I use?
Thank you, thank you, thank you for not giving some long drawn out explanation. You basically got to the point without all the extras.
+Angelique Okonji Thanks for the feedback!
Ikr, I clicked 4 videos, all women advertising the brand and showing already done work instead of showing the how to parr
This is all facts and the best comment. yes thank you!!!
Let us hope that you are a teacher by profession. If not, that's a shame. I've rarely heard a tutorial that is as excellent as this.
Thank you for your tutorial. Very well explained and budget friendly- not needing a $500 press like a lot of the other tutorials.👍😁
The stretch to release paper, I think has been my issue! Thanks for the tips so many years in the making haha

Can it be ironed onto a hard surface? Ex; wood?
Thankyou so much! Clear and concise! Dream come true that I could create my own tee-shirt so simply!! Thanks!

Hi Elizabeth Cruz , You need to mirror the design if you have text. If you have an image it is recommended, but not essential. Thanks for the comment.

Can I do it with normal paper?

Never ever use regular paper it ruins your shirt
