Default Velour
Hi,
I am new here and glad I found this forum.

I have printed successfully on 100% and 50/50 cottom /poly. I want to print on a white velour robe. It is on the thin side. I already washed it with regular detergent. I have a Geo Knight JP 12 heat press and Iron All transfers for inkjet printer. Has anyone printed successfully on velour? Is there anything I should do differently?
Diana

Diana,

I don't know how successful you're going to be with this. A transfer usually needs a flat fabric in order to "stick" properly.

You might try doing a very small test print in a hidden location first - like inside the hem or something.

It looks flat but I'll try a test.
Thanks,

I haven't tried it. I need to find a similar type of fabric to practice on.
