i have not done it but my thought would be to place the transfer on the hat, spray it with water so it layed down without wrinkles, place a tefon pillow on it, and press the snot out of it.

I have tried them in the past. I don't like the look of them as you get the backing on them and you don't wash a hat like you do with a shirt so when you sweat the backing that doesn't get trimmed turns an ugly white.

I have switched to using thermoflex vinyl and plastisol transfers only with hats.

Hope this helps....

Thanks Craig,
I also think plastisol transfers and screen printing i the way to go...
