mr300s 1,272 Posted April 4, 2014 Try looking at this should help but its always a trial and error. Once you like the results of something jot it down as to time etc. http://acp.com/index.htm Click on support then on heat transfer information then on what you are pressing. These folks are three minutes from me and great to deal with if you ever need anything... Oh sorry I thought I saw sublimate LOL ( I'll blame SeeJay he threw me off ) I would just use heat vinyl I have done a lot of them in the past. 320 degree for 20 seconds This one I just used a reg heat transfer and it came out great on a jiffy bag Camo one done with heat vinyl Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted April 4, 2014 Bags are cotton so regular Htv temps should be fine . . . Kookier not sure 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mopar691 281 Posted April 5, 2014 SS Activewear has coolers for .60. Throw a couple in every order. I generally buy them 1000 plus at a time, They are less then .30 at that rate different vendors. I screen a lot of them in the summer and generally get a buck a piece for them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcextreme 475 Posted April 5, 2014 My chapter wants me to do like 30 of these...they are going to pay me for them and right them off as a Bike Show expense. So i think i can get at least $2 each, so $60 for 30.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
