Default How do I remove heat transfers?

I have untill about one year ago, imported transfer removal spray from a company in the UK. Because of new rules for transportation of hazardous goods. The supplier is unable to export the spray outside of the UK.
Does anybody know of a supplier who sells spray or anything similar that removes heat transfers from textiles.
I would be grateful of any tips that could solve my problem.

I mixed acetone 3 to 1 with water and sprayed the back of a vinyl name.It removed the adhesive from the shirt, Their was a smell, but it washed out.I thought it was a lot of work to save a $2 shirt, but I wanted to know. ...JB
