  1. Just wanted to show a screenprint job I just did. Have had my press in storage for a few months. Finally found a new shop and am back in business! This was the first job in the new shop so I just thought I would show it!

  2. I usually use Alpha/Broder bros also. We are lucky to have a local office here in Louisville. If order by 6pm I can have it the next morning by 10am as long as it is in stock in there Chicago warehouse and most times it is. Only problem is that I have to call and ask for case pricing when ordering. They always give it without hassle!


  3. Thanks for all the tips. I have not had time today to work with them. I will get back after it tomorrow and let ya know what happens.

    Jeff-I checked in 9 places also. There was adifference from the front to the back but I made sure that the lowest temp was the suggested temp. about 15 degrees diff from front to back. Back being cooler.

    300- I will try your suggestions. tried bumping up and adding time but will try the rubbing thing also.

    Thanks

  4. I have been trying to do some heat transfers with no luck!

    Got them from Springhill. Tested temp of press with laser thermometor before start.

    375 for 7-10 secs, peel hot!

    none of them turned out. adjusted pressure on press as per their website. Tried diff times and temps and nothing helped. When I was trying to peel them off it was very difficult and was stretching the shirts!

    Could they be "bad" transfers? And how would you know?

    any help or suggestions would be great!

    going to take them to a friends tomorrow and try them on his press to see if I get any better results. Starting to get expensive!
