Default Re: Recommended transfer paper?

I've been reading good "iron" results with New Milford Photo paper for dark and lights (newmilfordphoto.com). They have a sample pack right now for $5.99 including shipping. I haven't had time to test yet (probably this weekend).

Also, will be testing new "Miracool" paper for lights which is spec'd for iron or heat press. Reading Miracool has nice hand. Only Cindy at personalizedsupplies.com has this very new paper.

For darks, I'm reading that Transfer Technologies one-step opaque for darks holds up to more than 18 washes. So I'm eager to try it out. Don't know if it's okay for hand iron. I do know many use Avery light or dark for hand ironing....but it's super expensive at about $2.00 per sheet.

I'll be using Magic Mix pigment ink and Durabrite ink with a heat press but because I'm a curious person...will use my hand iron too (hope my wrist doesn't start hurting).
