Hello,
which vinyl do you recommend for heat press transfer on thick canvas (cotton) make up bags?
My usual suppliers have the following:
Vivid Flex
Chemica

The chemica range has a lot of different vinyls, I was looking at the Hotmark and at the Firstmark. The Firstmark is much cheaper than the others.

What are your thoughts?

Keep in mind that the fabric is not stretchy and i don't think people will wash them more than once in a while.

Thanks!

I used to use Siser Videoflex when i used to sell t-shirts, do you think it's still the best?

I prefer Siser to all others I've used.
Hasn't let me down yet.

Hey Ginny,
where do you get it from?
Gamart doesn't stock it anymore, i found it at Conect and Print and Cut solutions. Any other suppliers i should know of?

If you're in the US, I order from Coastal Business.
I'm in CO and get my orders in 2 days.

heattransferwarehouse.com is awesome and also uscutter.com
the color theory vinyl is great too!!
I use uscutter more often because they are local to me and i don't have to wait for or pay for shipping.
both are great and have the best prices that i have found!!

Hi guys,
so i'm playing with Siser on my canvas make up bags, i have two questions:
- do you hot or cold peel? On the instructions it says cold peel but i tried hot peeling and it works well?
- do you re-press after applying the vinyl?

And last thing, the stripes in the sausage dog design are lifting, is it because of the bump in the bag or because i cold peeled and waited too long?
