Heat press paper urgently required !!
Hello,
Could anyone here (preferrably in the UK) tell me where i can urgently get a hold of the paper which you normally receive with transfer paper.
I need it for puting ontop of my dark transfers for cold peel. I have tried using grease proof paper, but that pulls the design off the t-shirt.
I need this paper URGENTLY. I have money waiting for payment right away if someone would even like to sell me some.
Many Thanks
Jon

Re: Heat press paper urgently required !! I use a teflon sheet. One place to find them is at
Vinyl Cutters, Heat Presses & Accessories, Heat Transfer Vinyl & Screen Printing Machines - Imprintables Warehouse
With that in mind, I have a few hundred 8.5 X 11 sheets of the kraft paper that comes with most opaque transfer paper that you're looking for. Since I use the teflon sheet, I've been saving all of that kraft paper for 2 years. I live in the U.S. though. Message me if interested.

Re: Heat press paper urgently required !! I thought you tried greaseproof paper, I don't think it will work.
You need a teflon sheet or the silicon ones (the same as the sheets you get in a box of transfer paper) for best results.

Re: Heat press paper urgently required !! Hi folks, i managed to find a temporary alternative until such times as i get some new silicone paper.
Using the backing sheet on which paper sticky labels are adhered to. I tore off all the sticky labels and the surround and this has a shiney non stick coating. Great for using ontop of dark transfers, and it also allowed me to peel off when hot, instead of waiting around until it cools.
A good little find i reckon !!
Cheers anyways for all the help !!

Re: Heat press paper urgently required !! Hi nelly
You are probably sorted by now, but, if you have got a branch of Wilkinsons near you they do Baking Parchment 375mm x 5metres for 65 pence.
It is good stuff and works like a charm.
