Any hot peels for opaque ink jet transfer?

Hello. Just wondering if there is any such thing as an inkjet transfer for dark fabrics that can be printed in mirror style, pressed, then hot/warm peeled? I guess I'm just wanting to skip the step of peeling the design off the backing, then trimming, then placing on the shirt, then pressing. Thanks.

Leaving the white trim around the tranfer looks great, it give your design a different look, but to your question, I do not know of any tranfer. Try leaving the white and not trimming it. Your cousmer will like it.

I trim the opaque paper *before* I peel it - while the backer paper is still in tact. I couldn't imagine dealing with that flimsy sheet without the backer on.

Otherwise, no, I haven't heard of a "mirror print and press" inkjet dark paper.
Actually there is such a transfer for inkjet. But it requires sublimation ink. It is made by Forever and sold by Conde System. The image is sublimated through the opaque material and the ink side is pressed against the shirt. The problem I find with Forever product is it will crack when thrown in hot water wash and dryer settings. At least the laser (OEM toner-not sublimation) version that I have tried.

Thank you, Luis! I can always count on you! :)

Okay, so yes, for sublimation ink and no, for pigment inks.

Aww, that sounds as good as having nothing because of the wash results. Plenty of customers are going to use settings other than cold. Good to see you again, MS2, hope all is well, and thanks again for the details on Forever. :)

PS: Does anyone like the sublimation inkjet version?
