Discuss the various aspects of heat press technology. Transfer paper, inks, plastisol transfers, vinyl cutters, printers, commercial usage, durability, suppliers, etc. Is this image heat transferrable?

Re: Is this image heat transferrable? Maybe you could change the white to a heather color. Try using a layer.

Re: Is this image heat transferrable? Yes you can put this on heather gray but depending on the type of paper you might have some shadowing. You could also place a heather gray background and you should be good.

Re: Is this image heat transferrable? I don't know how big you're going, but if it's a one time deal, I don't think it would be entirely impossible to do this in vinyl. I'd love to try it sometime with a better copy of the graphic. LOL

Re: Is this image heat transferrable? I use laser printer paper and I would first try Image Clip, which I think would do a nice job.
Second would be Duracotton/
JPSS (inkjet paper) trimmed close.

Re: Is this image heat transferrable? The biggest hurdle to a 'good' transfer is doing it on heather gray...that is why I suggested
DTG ..or vinyl for a one off
