Title: Source for transfer paper
Post by: blue moon on April 21, 2016, 04:25:12 PM: We have a source for really good transfer paper, but at $0.33 per 12x12 sheet it is pricey! I just ordered some from Tech Support SPS and while it is good, it is nowhere near as slick as the one we use currently.

Can somebody recommend good paper and the source?

thanx,

pierre

Paper we like is much slicker than the T-75. It seems to release better at cold temps and even works very well (100%) to release at high temps.

Post by: ZooCity on April 22, 2016, 03:34:41 PM: Pierre, definitely let us know how the one stroke system works for you. I'm attracted to the ELT's properties of being able to run down the dryer at regular shirt temps and like that it uses our house paper. Just haven't had time to try it!

Post by: aauusa on April 22, 2016, 04:25:41 PM: we use one stroke inks powder but like ace transfer cold peel paper. they work like a charm together. we use regular inks nothing fancy at all. just did some 6 color transfer number for autism. really could not get any better.

Post by: mimosatexas on April 22, 2016, 05:41:38 PM: What's the advantage or reason to use cold peel? I use the Ultrastrip 3000 hot peel and love it. Never any issues, and I just pull the paper, and stack the finished shirt immediately. Seems like cold peel just adds a step later.
Title: Re: Source for transfer paper
Post by: aauusa on April 22, 2016, 06:35:36 PM: Seems to work best with one stroke powder. Can flash as long as you need and run paper through dryer normal speed and temp. Plus easy for operator to run through ad the go back a peel paper off. No worries if paper cools we used to use hot peel but switched when we changed powder.
