I used to use Ironall until the paper changed. It flakes too much for me and curls a little too much. They may have changed it again but I just don't have the time to try out another paper, as I am busy every night doing shirts.

I use transjet II paper with no lines on the back and I am fully satisfied with that.

There are several opaque transfer papers on the market (although I'm not a big fan of the quality)

I really don't do a lot of dark shirts unless I order custom transfers. I use the opaque paper mainly for tote bags where the fabric is heavy.
