Rodney, you can also get screen printed type Flock Transfers, this material comes in big wide rolls, you cut them to the screen print sheet size and print the 1 color/type designs on it.Rodney said:
Where do I get "screen printed type Flock Transfers"? And how exactly can the printed design be app;ied to the fabric? heat-pressed directly?T-BOT said:Rodney, you can also get screen printed type Flock Transfers, this material comes in big wide rolls, you cut them to the screen print sheet size and print the 1 color/type designs on it.
......now testing some camoflouge and other printed patterns in various materials, flock, foils....etc. for 2007.
I guess this screen print type process would be to balance out with the cut/plotter process.
yes you print it directly.hyacintha10 said:
thanks! helped me out alot. you see, im from the far away land of the philippines and here, flock printing is not as well known as in other places so im thinking of introducing it as an alternative to the usual screen printing technique. do you know of websites that sell stock flock designs in affordable prices?T-BOT said:yes you print it directly.
Screen printed flock, you screen print the design with special adhesive to the flock transfer material backside, and yes, only the screen printed area will press/print on the shirt, the rest will remain on the paper. Sort of like how plastisol transfers work. No weeding involved.
Right now there are only the basic colors, black, white, red, gold-yellow etc..... some brilliant peeps at Discovery may have more fashion forward colors.... "SuperFlock" .
hope this info helps you out some.
Yea, they feel like velvet / velour. Really short fibers, soft to the touch.
