Default Re: Recommended transfer paper?

Try to stay away from the "Office Supply" stores to buy transfer paper. You are paying triple the price. Try the New Milford paper for light, be sure to get the "Iron All" not just the hot peel. It stretches and can be ironed on. Why are you staying with just darks. With heat transfers the feel and wash ability of Opaque (dark) just does not do it for me or my customers. I want the customer to come back and if they had a bad experience with a dark shirt they won't. I think the screen printers have it on the darks. I talked to John at new Milford and he said there is a new opaque paper coming out that is supposed to stretch. That may help us all that have this problem with opaques. I want to do darks but just don't like the feel of the paper.
