I'm so sorry, but I can't find this guide or question asked on the forum! I searched a lot.
It seems to me like the most basic question and a starting off point. Like a first off thought for most wannabe t-shirt makers. I realize it might be too dumb for those in the know to want to be printed here at all - heh.
However I think the info could shed light on why a heat press is so important, and perhaps lead people away from making mistakes.
I CAN afford a heat press, but I want to be sure it's necessary.
Is there a guide to doing iron on transfers with an actual IRON so that one gets the best results possible?
I read warm the shirt first, and make sure to cover the iron over the shirt long enough (kind of vague and I'm probably not conveying it well in words, as it may sound like a burning-it danger [and actually how does one then not burn it, or does one anyway ha ha?]).... and I read that it is uneven ... (and I'm leaning toward a heat press) ... anything else? Step by step instructions? Must I use the special papers, and how quality are those papers?
Thank you for please, please humoring me a bit.
