We do several names and numbers on sports jerseys weekly using hotmark70. Have never had a problem with the "box".
Pressing vinyl numbers on poly sports jerseys
Hello all,
I'm about to press some numbers on a poly baseball jersey.Im going to use easy weed, I've read about dye migration but the vinly is black so I don't think ill have much of a problem.
My concern is with the press leaving a "box" on the shirt. I've read on the sublimation pages to rip a printed transfer with jagged edges to lessen the "box " effect. How would you do this with vinyl? Will I get that "box " where the carrier paper was ? should I use a pillow ? or a piece of foam a little smaller that the transfer ?
Any input would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
