Default Printing on dark tshirts??

Hey guys,

I'm new to the tshirt business. I'm going to have my laser printed design heat pressed onto some t's.The t's are dark navy blue.
Best Blanks says it sells some sort of backing
material that i can put down on the shirt so the white in my design will show
up. My design has a alot of halftones and is photo realistic. Has anyone
else tried this product from Best Blanks? Also is there another way to
"pretreat" the shirt so my design shows up correctly? Thanks alot.

If there is an opaque transfer paper for your laser printer you could use that instead of a pretreatment.
