what is the trick with the transfer powder? - I know a couple of printers that said that was the tricky part to get right so they work properly.

with just one color its no trick you run the paper under the conveyor drier or let it sit under a flash drier for 10 seconds then you print the design. After that you get adhesive powder and pour it on and cover the complete design, then you shake off the excess. and run it thru the dryer or under the flash drier and your done. that's one color. the last is a video to show you the whole process 1 and 2 color but if your using a decal vinyl stencil its the same but you mirror and flip the image for decal vinyl.

Been playing with 1 color transfers here but I want to get a little more time under my belt before I throw my hat in the arena. Like DJ said my powder is no big deal as long as you get all the excess off before you gel the transfer. If any is left behind it'll show up on the finished products as little white specs.

here is a few vinyl decal stencils I made and some transfers. its best to also have a vacuum pallet but you can use a regular pallet and spray adhesive but its tricky unless its aluminum but just spray the pallet 1 time and that's it or you will rip the paper pulling it up. also its messy.
