does anyone have exp. with there transfers, a customer brought a couple hundred of various biker designs to put on 100% cotton tees , I'm not really getting consistent good results
there seems to be ink left on the paper , not a ghost image but actual chunks of ink. Ive got newer stahls hotronix irons, what are the tricks or tips for these.
I have the instructions but not really working at what they are saying?

Are they old?.....

I don't think so, last time I did them for the customer I think there was one design that was old because there was no way to get them off the paper. I'm just doing some now I have the temp at 400* and am ironing 15 sec waiting a second or 2 then peeling they seem to be working so far.?
using the temp and time in the instructions just isn't working

Sounds like hot peel working. Are the instructions cold peel?
