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.
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
I found a new company for JPSS and Jet Opaque. Welcome
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!!

My printer is an epson stylus nx515 i dont if its the ink or not but i did a picture or a desing the letters werw blk with a wht line around the letters and the background was a brick path picture it was for a blk t the color didnt come out good its liked the colors blended whith the blk t the background didnot look nothing like it was and the wht llines around the letters did'n showed... Any help??? Thanks
And by the way there's a store here in puerto rico (archilla paper )they sell the neenah jet opaque at $.59 but sells in packs of 250 sheets plus the sales tax i spend in total $157.83 i dont know if its sheap or not but for you maybe the shipping and handling would be higher....just chek
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.
i'm printing regular side not mirror and i have to cut whit exacto knive to get a fim an press it on the shirt i havent done any more but i followed the instruccion i think i'm doing it right but i'm goin to make some tests with the heat press cause i press at 350 grades for 30 min (thats what the instruccion said) and someone told me they doit for less time .....well i'll be making some test and then i'll tell you... thank's for the advise
