The vinyl design is cut using a vinyl cutter and then heat pressed on a shirt. The vinyl is real thin and gives the appearance and some say the fell of screen print. ... JB

Many say the vinyl when applied correctly, will outlast the garment it is pressed to.

There's no doubt about that Ken. The vinyl will still look brand new when the shirt has holes in it.

Thats a fact. I have seen shirts I made over a year ago and they still look awesome.The shirt is a little faded but the vinyl is still bright red. .... JB

lol JB, I've got one on now that is about 2 yrs old, it's a safety green shirt with black vinyl. Shirt has faded some but the vinyl looks like I just applied it. This shirt is worn at least once a week so GOD only knows how many times it's been washed.

Yes I use nothing but multicut for my heatpress vinyl, it to me is simply the best. Roger (plan b) has excellent glitter vinyl.

ThermoFlex is the most popular brand I have heard of from alot of our customers. It is also my understanding that Joto's MultiCut is just as good, but priced better.

Hi Earl I am using Joto's MultiCut I like this lot better when doing small transfers it stays on until you transfer it . and it is thin.
