Default Iron All (Everlast) vs Neenah Jet Opaque

For those of you that use heat transfers for darks what do you prefer? I tried 1 prior to Neenah's Jet Opaque and wasn't pleased with the results at all. Ever since then I've stuck with Neenah. I'm starting to wonder though from reading back posts if there is something better out there.

Does the Iron All have a better feel or look to it? Is it thinner than Neenah's Jet Opaque? Does it hold the ink better? Thinking of trying to find a supplier to order a sample for myself, but I just wanted opinions first.

The Jet Opaque is probably the best I have ever used. Easy release, holds its color and doesn't crack. What more would you like it to do?

I use Jet Opaque, after trying many others I've decided on this. I only use it for filled multi colored text or small multi colored designs. I contour cut them with a vinyl cutter,haven't used iron all in a few years. Mike

Thanks! If you search the forum you should be able to find it much cheaper than that. I can get JPSS for .40 - .50 per sheet and the Opaque for about $1.00 per sheet of the 8 1/2 x 11.

If anyone knows where to get it cheaper than that please share!!

Grafika, sounds to me like you are using regular transfers for light colors . Did you have to print in reverse or regular? The opaque paper I have used is actually like a white piece of film so there is no way the white wouldn't show.
