different types of transfers? which stock transfers are good?
I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. but there is so much information out there..
I have been selling kids clothes for the last 6 years.. making them myself, sewing and embroidery. I recently bought a heat press and want to add tees/hoodies to my upcoming website.
I've been reading about plastisol transfers, inkjet, hot peel, cold.. etc..
I'm confused!!
I just want to buy some stock transfers and sell ready made tees in all sizes to start with, then maybe I will get into designing my own.. but for now just want to try some out.
what is the best kind for a newbie like myself to buy? I've been looking at proworld, wildside, etc.
Alex. I suggest you purchase designs that you feel will meet the interests of the customer base that you are trying to reach. The more designs that you offer the more chnace you have for success.

any help please!
The kind you see at places like proworld, airwaves, etc are usually plastisol transfers.
They are are applied different ways (peeled off when cold: cold peel, peeled off when the transfer is warm: hot peel)

You almost can't go wrong when buying stock transfers from the major places like ProWorld, Wildside, Airwaves.
They send you the transfers and the instructions on how to put them on.
When you want to venture into your own custom designs, that's when you'll want to read up on the inkjet transfers or outsourcing plastisol transfers to a custom printer
Re: different types of transfers? which stock transfers are good?
Hi, I'm also interested in buying stock transfers. I have a question on how they work, maybe a stupid one but I'd like to know from the experts here. Are the stock transfers like the self weeding transfers where you don't need to cut the edges of the design anymore? Or do I still need a cutter for these kinds of stock transfers?
Re: different types of transfers? which stock transfers are good?
The stock transfers are basically screen printed designs that are printed on transfer release paper. When the design is pressed onto a garment only the ink releases and leaves a finished product. Nothing to cut, nothing to weed.

Re: different types of transfers? which stock transfers are good?
I have recently been using a few Wildside Transfers and they are really beautiful! The only issue I have been having is that when I peel them when I get about 3/4 of the way down they begin to get difficult to peel - in other words the transfer is not transferirng near the bottom. I have a new G. Knight Heat press that has coils evenly spread throughout the press so I think it is that I am not peeling fast enough??? Any ideas would be appreciated!
