CRD 9 Posted July 10, 2009 Hi, Just for the fun of my web page www.customracingdecal.com I need to make three or four tshirts using flex. A friend has a heat press but no time to design and cut and not the knowledge what I want. I can do laser or injet transfer print and contour cut but I like to have it with flex only to get longer lasting results. Now if you see the t-shirt with logos is this possible? How do you layer flex material and put it on the tshirt before pressing? If I have to buy more then flex only I skip and let some one else let them do. But I thought I try do it myselve first.

99v8miata 3 Posted July 10, 2009 You would layer it like a decal and press the first color for about 5 seconds then the second color for about 5 seconds and then the last color fro the time that is recommended. Dave Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRD 9 Posted July 10, 2009 That I understand but do I need special transfer tape? I only have paper transfer tape I use for normal vinyl. Paco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest sciondrgn Posted July 10, 2009 Im not sure what flex is? but on normal heat press vinyl you dont use a transfer tape because the back is already on there.. You cut the image in reverse which leaves the backing on top when you press down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRD 9 Posted July 10, 2009 Dragon, Flex I mean is just like sisser weed or something. If you cant look through how do you align two layers or are carriers for this stuff always transparant? Paco Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
