Default heat transfers and cool n dry t shirts

Hi


I am new to the heat transfer paper stuff, but not new to transfers. I just bought some transfers from newmilford and i bout the light color ones for printing on some white poly shirts, the cool n dry ones from bodek and rhodes.

1. will these transfer print on that type of shirt

2. i have an hp 2575 with vivera ink, will the transfers run?

Any help would be much appreciated. I don't have many to do so I was trying to save on costs rather then having transfers made up.

Please let me know ASAP!!! Thanks in advance.

vivera inks are pigment inks, so they shouldn't run.

Dye sub would probably be best on those shirts.

Which exact paper did you buy from newmilford?

Yup. The temps involved are pretty close. If your fabric can handle 385, you may as well sublimate it. I can't imagine the polymer will look all that great on polyester.

I have never tried it though. Give it a shot and report back!
