Default heat transfer paper

Hi,

Am a very new member, and just wanted to as what transfer paper y'all thought was good for mock up or "demo shirt" for new clients. I have been using the purple line paper from blank shirts (imprintable apparel & supplies), and the alpha double green from alpha supply company. The purple line is good for a more open design with words or empty spaces, and the alpha double green is good for a "totall enclosed design" which needs little or no trimming. I am sure there is better stock available, and am just looking for suggestions.
Thanks.

Hi, I see you have used Alpha Supply Co transfer paper. They
have a complete line of transfer papers and they put out a very good informative newsletter (Toner Times). They will answer any questions you have on the subject. They are located in Nashville TN. Give them a call and they will work with you on any problems you might have. I have used their Alpha Gold Dark on dark shirts with excellent results. You can reach them at:

Jack Franklin and Roy Hinkle
Alpha Supply Co. - 800-908-9916

I hope this helps and Good Luck.

Bill M

Thanks for the info and advice. Alpha Supply is such a nice co. to work with, the guys are so helpful, maybe I will try their alpha double red (hot peel) paper and see how it works.

Thanks again
Rodney
