I'm new to vinyl cutting and I'm going cross eyed trying to find the best place to purchase rolls of heat press vinyl for apparel. Can someone help a newbie out and point me in the right direction for product / price. I want to get the best price for best product. I know cheap generally = cheap product, but I want to get the best bang for the $$.

Thanks everyone
Trixie :)

I use Coastal Business Supply because they're about 20 min away from me and i usually just drive up there to get what i need and be on my way. I also use Stahls because the have a wider variety of vinyl. I just start using Specialty graphics for there rhinestone template material. Also if you do your order online, Coastal business has a 5% discount promo code for tshirtforum members. I THINK Specialty Graphics has one too, but i think you have to spend a certain amount of money for the code to be valid.

Please do tell what "rhinestone template material" you prefer to use. I'm new to that also.

Thanks so much for the replies, it helps alot to narrow down my searches.

Well i am kind of a newbie to the rhinestone biz also. I have been doing it for around 4-5 months. But i have tried the REAL Sticky Flock, the "homemade sticky flock", Graphtec rhinestone template material (pink), DAS rhinestone material, Viscose flock, Hartco 425s, and the Specialty graphic rhinestone material.

If price wasn't a factor for me, i would buy the real Sticky Flock because its a great template material...but i'm not gonna pay for it (too expensive for me).

I prefer the specialty graphic green material because it weeds very good and it is very cost effective. A lot of ppl don't like using backer boards anymore,( i think that is why they shifted to sticky flock) but i don't mind.

Homemade sticky flock is ok too, You just need to take that extra step and heat press the flock and removable wall vinyl together
