Default paper for pink shirt

Hi, can someone please tell me what kind of paper to use on a light pink shirt. Can I use IronAll or do I use opaque? Also do sweatshirts need more time and pressure?Thanks for all your help.Allie

You could use a light transfer like ironall for pink t-shirts if you don't mind the WHITE in your designs showing as the pink of the garment.

You just have to remember that when using an inkjet transfer for lights that no white will be shown on other color garments. The only white available is the white of the garment.

You will need to adjust your pressure for sweatshirts. Heavy pressure on a t-shirt is not the same setting as heavy pressure on a sweatshirt (because of the thickness)

If you own a color laser printer you can use Imageclip. Check the link below. The post has photo of pink shirt pressed with Imageclip. No white border or polymer window.
