When I purchased my vinyl cutter, I got several colors of the Hotmark 70 vinyl for tees, and when I look online and in the catalog from the vendor, It does not say what materials it will go well on... 100% cotton.. 50/50 blends... either.. both.. etc.. I have a customer who wants to bring in her own tank tops to have writing put onto it, and I was not sure - but want to be able to tell her so that it turns out well!
I have had a slight problem with hotmark 70, when the shirt is washed and dried the lettering comes loose. can someone tell me what is causing this.I heat press at about 350 for 10 to 15 seconds and peel cool.
We use hotmark 70 everyday. My trick is to be sure the garment is cold before peeling. If your tempted to peel it a little early then give another short press of 5 seconds using the same backing or your teflon sheet.
