Title: Transfer Express Introduces New Stretch Litho™ Heat Transfer
Post by: Deborah Sexton on February 13, 2016, 03:31:49 PM
Transfer Express introduces the newest technology in apparel decoration called Stretch Litho™. This new heat transfer combines full color, digitally printed artwork with a screen printed plastisol ink for a soft feel.

With great durability, Stretch Litho™ can be heat applied using a heat press onto cotton, polyester and cotton/polyester blends. The low temperature application is beneficial for preventing scorching heat-sensitive polyester fabric.

The sharp edges on Stretch Litho™ heat transfers are perfect for free-standing text, full color artwork with fine detail and use a digital CMYK color palette. Artwork can be provided by a customer and uploaded on TransferExpress.com or design professional artwork using Easy Prints® layouts that are ready to customize on Easy View™ online Tt-shirt designer.

Stretch Litho™ is printed on an 11.25” x 14” transfer release paper and artwork can be ganged together on a sheet to maximize the area of the transfer sheet.

Got the sample, applied it, very nice. Then, I checked on the pricing, it's less expensive to make screens and print. They won't do less than 10 sheets, 11.25 x 14, so a full sized image will run
$22 and change, plus freight, add in the shirt cost and markup, simply not worth it IF you already have a auto shop...

don't get me wrong, I transferred the sample and it came out great, but the price makes it unusable, if, you're a printer. If you're one of the decorators that only does heat transfer work, it may work out just fine... but 10 full size front or back images are $22.00 and change each, no way. I think they are using the X-Trans from Inkcups... about 70K.
