You only need to "gel" the ink... about 230ish. DO use the adhesion powder. 83-110 screen. I use a "vacuum platten" heat press at 325 for 25-30 seconds on a shirt. Printed thousands of them like this. Multi color gets a bit tricky.

@@kokoroko7810 there's no need to do 4 or 5 color heat transfer bruh, what a waste of time doing 1 by 1 color heat transfer, what you need to do just doing the under base with white plastisol ink on to the color printed transfer paper and the process just same as heat transfer using adhesive powder and curing with heat press after that ready to apply in the shirt but with spraying some water after first heat press then press again about 5 second then you peel off after spraying water, that's what called Digital Screen Transfer method

Do you think it is possible to make your own plastisol heat transfers with a flash dryer vs. a conveyor dryer? Currently don't have a belt dryer, but am looking at making transfers and I'm curious if it would still work or if it's hard to control the proper flashing time/temp on the paper?

@leestuart38 4 жыл бұрын

It is definitely possible. Since the ink is just yelled and not fully cured, it's actually pretty easy with a flash. Just make sure to watch it with a temp gun so you're not over or under doing it 🤘🏻

@leestuart38 4 жыл бұрын

This was a 160 mesh. It depends on the print and what kind of garment it's going on. If it's something that has a full underbase then you can flash each color as you go, if it isn't then there's other steps you have to take. You just need to have a fully wet ink layer in the final step to be able to apply the adhesion powder.
