Discuss the various aspects of heat press technology. Transfer paper, inks, plastisol transfers, vinyl cutters, printers, commercial usage, durability, suppliers, etc.
I have purchase the JPSS and the Jetflex Transfer paper. I like the JPSS color output seems to hold the image color pretty well, but the crack is visible when stretched. Really like the Jetflex transfers very durable with stand when stretching, but does not hold the color as well as the JPSS. I have heard of Iron All transfers thinking giving that a try, if it has both of the results I like from the other two transfers that will the one. But I can live with either if I had to choose. Any suggestions or comments that will be great.
Thanks

Two things for JPSS:
1. If you peel it cold, it may crack in the first wash. Rhonda/Queerrep came up with the correct procedure for avoiding this. Look up thread "JPSS cold revisited" for her technique.
2. If you don't stretch the shirt -right after- it is hot peeled, and re-press it, you could see cracks in the weave easier.

You already have tried Ironall.
Jetflex is one of the many "other" names of Ironall. Here is a list for you, so you don't keep buying different papers - thinking they are variations - when all of these *are* Ironall paper that you read about here on the forum: IRONALL LIGHT other Alternative Names and Suppliers

I prefer JPSS, I always make sure to stretch the garment when using JPSS. This certainly reduces any visible cracking. Kelly beat me to it, Jetflex is just another name for Ironall so you have already used it. I honestly cannot image using anything other than JPSS. I hope this helps.

Can someone tell me a good paper to use on dark "stretchy" shirts? I am printing text only so I cannot have the polymer window. Is it only image clip and does that crack?? Thanks....
choosing between Jetflex or JPSS transfer
