Question where to have heat transfers made

Hello all, Hope everyone is having a great day today. I was wondering if anyone out there knew where I can have heat transfers made??? We are in the San Diego area but of course I don't mind ordering. I am looking for the best quality at the best price.

I know you can get plastisol transfers made from silvermountaingraphics.com. Is that what you're looking for?

I have the same question! I'm trying to get started in the tshirt business to supplement my income (I'm a single mom!) I've looked into heat presses, blank shirts, etc. BUT - I need to know where to go to get artwork turned into transfers to heat press to the blanks! I know seems like a really simple question to all you pros out there, but I need a liitle help on this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Most people just print the transfers themselves with an epson or HP printer and the right inks.

However, there are companies out there that will print transfers for you if all you want to do is press them. Did you try the company I mentioned in the second post in this thread? They have been recommended many times by other members of this forum.

Smile Re: where to have heat transfers made

Also members of another group have had good experiences with these two companies:

www.versatranz.com

www.transferexpress.com

This company mentioned frequently:

www.silvermountaingraphics.com

I have personally had great experience with
www.dowlinggraphics.com

So far, they are the only company to offer oversized
and let me gang multiple images on a sheet (versus only same image
in different sizes).

If you want to print out your own digital transfers, you can read some articles here.

http://personalizedsupplies.com/support.htm

FYI..."heat transfers" can mean many things from custom screenprinted transfers to digital output from an inkjet/laser printer to transfers using dye sublimation inks.

Susan was also kind enough to introduce me to Dowling Graphics. They have been excellent and the oversized ganging has been very cost effective. The quality is outstanding as well.
