Thanks Mick, glad you are enjoying the vids. Cheers Martin

Martin Butler hey my computer was stolen u sent me a link abt a year ago because I bought ur training. you sent a link but I don't know the link anymore to log in.

Drop me an email and i'll send you your info Teressa. Cheers Martin

email sent. Cheers Martin

Did you find out what's happened I had the same thing

The issue wasn't the sharpness of the lines, it was with the application of the transfers but I know what you mean. Cheers Martin

Photoshop text layers ARE vector. They implemented vector many years ago.

Photoshop absolutely works.

@ Chris Whewell. Chris I'm contemplating going the A + B route. But here's the thing. I'll use old or cheap shirts to experiment on no need spoil specially bought garments. Like any other craft we are just going to have to develop our skills which inevitably means making a few mistakes . All the best and stick with it.

Yes, I agree but I have to test them as they do make it look easy so my examples are real examples so people can make an informed decision. Cheers Martin

I'm doing some training at the moment on this product and the results are amazing. Will follow up soon.

It's been 3 months. Will you please show us how to do this correctly? I'm so curious

August 16th 1977, remember it well Pete, also Sharon's birthday.

Yes was a sad day summer holidays off school . Remember them saying he had passed on John Cravens newsround.

Skynepsis actually... there is a print and cut vinyl for sublimation. It is called subli flex 202. You'll find them on KZfaq as well

Interesting, I'll be testing it more and review the results for everyone. Cheers Martin

thanks for the tip. the idea of the glitter for sublimation was a deal breaker for me!

@Christopher Sigmann I tested it and found it suffered bad dye migration and wasn't very strong, was not impressed to be honest, but thank you for the info anyway :)

Skynepsis what did you press it on? poly? the subli flex paper is designed for cotton only, stated in bold letters in the instructions.

Hey, thanks

Thanks bud, glad you got something from the vids. Cheers Martin

No problem Tanya, I'm in a position to do this so I hope it will save others time and money.

Thanks bud, I'm glad you are liking the videos and they help you understand this home business.

Nice info, Thanks for the comment. Cheers Martin

Tina Tayl

so you can only print one colour (white) ?

The foreverflex Soft rang are all single coloured sheets. You only need to print onto them with a black toner as the colour is coming from the transfer paper and the toner is what the B paper glue sticks to. The ink colour is not on show.

Any idea's why it's leaving the glue on the print?

Thanks Perry, Yes, as I said, that's why I do these vids so people can actually watch what could happen instead of watching a polished video from suppliers showing no problems when in reality, there are issues if you have never used these before. Keep watching as i'm sure the suppliers will help me get it right and i'll pass it on to everyone here who is interested. Cheers Martin

Yes it did, I think it's just teething problems. Cheers Martin

I tried that wit5h this printer but it didn't work.

I'll let everyone know as soon as they show me. Cheers Martin

Too much of a faff to get it right when other transfers and vinyls work prefect. I've been doing t shirts for 13 years.

Simplified video

Omar Mulla that's the major reason that almost all media producers recommend original OKI White Toner systems. These printers align in 1 pass, so there is no registration problem and furthermore they can be improved with TransferRIP Software. But for the flex soft system shown over here, the printer can be from various producers, as all you have to do is print enough toner onto the foil.

Christopher Sigmann Thanks, yes I decided to "invest" in a C711WT and I use the Space Control Software. I use it with an Adkins press.

Omar Mulla C711? are you from North America or is OKI UK still selling the old C-Series? Europe and Australia already work with the Pro series. But it will did the job. Please also try out the TransferRIP Software. The Space Control is like MS Dos to Windows 10. Almost no function and only needed when working with the inferior WoW paper.

Christopher Sigmann I purchased a used C711wt, newer models are available now. I have tried the demo version of the TransferRIP and understand it rasterizes the image to get a softer 'hand' conserve the white toner. The software isn't cheap though :(

Omar Mulla it pays itself over time, just by toner savings (in some cases up to 60 percent) 😉 Also, the halftone rasterization is just one function of many. There is cost calculation, partial transparency preservation, choking function to avoid white outlines... How much is it where you are from?

My pleasure!

I didn't really get an answer bud. I didn't end up using these papers as they were double the price of the papers I use and they need an expensive printer and a top end heat press, even then, they are temperamental.

@@reviewthat Thanks for that mate. I did my tests yesterday and after a few hiccups all went good in the end. I just found a video (watching it now) with a guy who has a company doing this and he shows how he prints on the B paper!! Yeah I know right. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o5lmesmKv57Tfac.html

Nice tip, Thanks for the comment.

No problem Martin. I love to watch your Channel. You doing great job. Keep up! Cheers!

It came from a company called Sun Angel I think.

He doesn't know how to use the product.

@@brotherernest5993 No. That's why he is doing these tests so he does get to know!

I don't use it bud

Just gotta get it right and were' off. Cheers Martin

You can use the greaseproof paper you use in the kitchen for baking too

I did get it to work but now very good.

Thank u.

Yes I will Pauly lol Cheers Martin

It's trial and error at this stage for me Ben. Cheers Martin

I know buddy it's just the trail and Error with these systems can be very costly as I found out to my detriment. . I learnt from you when I started up so just trying to give back cheers Martin.

you'd best contact them bud, The printer choice is critical for these papers.

Yes, I am trying to get some of that transfer media to test as well.

which media would that be?

Laser Dark No Cut Forever transfer paper.

I'm sure you get a response from someone who is up to speed on the papers as I'm on the learning curve but I can see the potential and feel it's worth looking at.

I tried that with no success.

I use this two configuration and works very well , no problem. See this link... www.mediafire.com/view/m7d63e9yy7icmhw

it's different for the Foreverflex papers. They come out shiny after pressing so you use a silicone paper to matt them off where as the transfer papers I use, are matt and you use a teflon sheet to make them shiny.

This is self weeding paper bud.

As I said in the video, I did a test with the recommended settings and it wasn't quite right. None of the instruction state they should sit over night, let alone rub an Ice cube over them. As you probably know, I have been in the t shirt biz for over 12 years and have a vast experience but showing the tests as I do will let people know that sometimes, things don't go to plan and you have to adapt. Equipment plays a big part. Normally, the instructions are a starting point that one may need to adjust based on equipment. I'm also aware that the things you said about the pressure and the A B sheet temp may need adjusting but also there is an issue with the printer not accepting the sheets. I show this as others may invest hundreds in this equipment and have the same issues. That is why I do what I do. Cheers Martin

try to add soms plane paper underneath the foil in the multi purper tray. of helps for me

I did try that but no better.

They told me that all the samples they sent were done with the Forever Flex Soft so I'm not sure that this is the case. They were printed on A3 size though and my sheets were A4. I'll have to get them to confirm this. Cheers Martin

Martin Butler I hear you. I've been using it on and off for about a year. it's extremely finicky product but if you can get the setting right it awesome. the other thing I noticed is you didn't like the letters of the last Elvis shirt you printed. the presser on the press was to high. that what happens, then the glue from the b sheet spreads over. this is what I got from the manufacturer. love you vids

I didn't think there was enough pressure. It wasn't as high as i've seen in their examples. Thanks for the feedback. Cheers Martin

ednikkel there are two gold colours for the flex soft available. one is white gold and the other is called yellow gold. That is definitely not hot stamping foil

alan waggett you could layer these papers like with vinyl or like you are probably used to it from screen printing. But there is also a way to produce full colour images in one pass with the OKI white toner system.

Best ask the people at Forever bud.

You can't really do one off t shirts with screen printing and make any money though.

More like Screen print or vinyls.

I use the Galaxy Mug Press Pro and it's been great. I also only recommend the Ricoh sg3110 with the Sawgrass Sublijet R inks for sublimation. Cheers Martin

Best ask them bud

No I haven't. As long as they can take the heat of the transfer, I don't see a problem.

You would need to ask the makers of this transfer paper bud.

It was their Forever Flex Papers they sent me as a sample.

No, these feel great. It surprised me when I felt them.

I don't use these papers bud

Best contact Forever bud. I have a new Galaxy Hero and it pressed a transfer fine but not tried the A B paper yet.

It's only a test Michael. Cheers Martin

I mentioned it in the vid bud Oki C321 DN although not ideal for these transfers apparently.

No, Contact the Forever people to get their recommendations.

Forever recommend a £3,000 printer.

I print with inkjet printer normally. Regards Martin

HI Marjorie, I have used my Ricoh for years with the Sawgrass Sublijet R Inks and the powerdriver software for the colour profiles and it has never let me down. You should check out the Ricoh SG3110 printer as it's a great sublimation printer. Also check out my training dvd as you'll get email support from me. Regards Martin

Good morning Martin, thank you for the quick reply does the printer come with the powerdriver soft ware. How much for the dvd and do you post to the USA Where in UK are you.?

You can download the powerdriver software for free from the Sawgrass website. here's the link to my dvd and I do ship to the USA. ukinternetmarketingschool.com/my-products/mug-printing-dvd-for-fun-and-profit/

Bizarre Central your link doesn’t work for your dvd

I don't use this transfer paper.

@@reviewthat so what do you use for transfer paper and could i use a different printer with these paper thanks for help

Thanks Donovan.

Just type into Google images "elvis silhouette"

Yes, I believe they are.

steve laming for the flex soft, you don't need an OKI White toner. You can work with almost any brand of laser printer. When it comes to the cost of white toner, the cost of the colours are quite regular. only white toner itself is a bit more expensive per cartridge but on daily business the toner costs per print won't exceed 0,50 cent per A4, which can even be reduced by 40 percent with TransferRIP Software.

If you buy official Oki carts, then yeah they can be quite expensive. You 'can' use compatible ones though which are much cheaper. I have 2 oki printers, one is on PayPerClick, so I get charged per page I print and all my toner carts are just sent to me from Oki without charge. My other one however is much older, not on PPC and I buy compatible toner cos it cheaper.

Nice info Logan, Thanks for sharing. Cheers Martin

You need to check your heat press to see if it is heating up evenly at the correct temp as this sets the ink into the transfer paper.

am now getting started in the business i only bought a printer n a cutter but i dont have a heat press so i use my home iron but i would like to know if that is the cause why the designs are cracking up or its bz am using the wrong transfer paper?

@ owen jeffrey. Sir, you can not be serious! Your work cannot be completed to a professional standard without a professional heat press. Domestic irons are out! forbidden! Give yourself a chance at producing good quality stuff where customers will be happy. All the best.

Come on bud, I'm 56 years old and make mistakes. judge the content, not me.

I did comment on the video? Just letting you know the proper name of items

Not yet Dan.

Not with these papers

no way! 😂😂😂

Yes, for those papers.

16"x20"

abrahms2000 11x17 / A3 max

I know they are available in A3 sheets.

i don't know but i'm aware that the Forever Flex people have a base in the USA so keep tuned.

pitson Williams for the Paper shown in the video you DON'T NEED a white toner printer. You can even work with a cheap Canon LP 6030 which is available on Amazon for less then 200 USD. The paper can be bought at various dealers like Coastal, Conde, US Cutter, RPL, Reich Supply and many many more, just ask for 'flex soft no cut'.

i know but i feel like the setup he is using cost a lot less then what we have in the us at 3000

I have ones that have been washed loads of times and that is not the case.

Ensuring customers receive full wash instructions is imperative.

I didn't do it. It came converted to the Sunangel system.

Martin Butler i guess thats not in australia. Coz wt printer are really expensive to buy in australia. Looking forward ur video working on white toner paper white toner machine. Cheers

Martin Butler i guess thats not in australia. Coz wt printer are really expensive to buy in australia. Looking forward ur video working on white toner paper with white toner printer. Cheers

Ramesh Tamang the knock off's like the sun angel weren't that successful. Meanwhile you got the OKI Pro7411 A4 printer or the OKI Pro8432 A3 printer in Australia. Pricewise it is not more expensive than in the US or Canada down under in Australia and therefore a cheap DTG alternative.

Christopher Sigmann yeah i hav got c711wt. But i am experiencing lack of washability when i do a flat scale image printed. So i am waiting for your video to see how you go with that.

Are you listening though lol

it's different for the Foreverflex papers. They come out shiny after pressing so you use a silicone paper to matt them off where as the transfer papers I use, are matt and you use a teflon sheet to make them shiny.
