Sorry I'm not very good at this these things?
How do you do it?
(thanks for link)
and i personally think that printer transfer paper looks really shit, but some people seem to like it, so.....
your a star thanks kaffrin.. I'll try the printer one where you bung the paper in the printer (can you use normal ink though or special printer ink) also where can I get hold of the equipment I just want quick cheap and not the best quality stuff to begin with..
Thank you paperB Is it hard to use and in lamemens guide:)
thank you everyone,
ok, this is literally a foolproof guide to that stuff
-select the thing you want on the shirt and print it, if you want text you have to do a mirror image of the text as it'll come out back to front otherwise (psp has a handy mirror button)
-wash and iron your shirt so theres no creases
-pop a bit off tin foil under the shirt so the gunk doesnt drip onto the floor
-cut around the image
-slop the gunk onto it and cover liberally
-place the image wet side down on the shirt then cover it with some kitchen roll and rolling pin over it for a minute
-take the kitchen roll off and leave the shirt to dry over night
-take a soaking wet cloth and from the centre rub off the paper carefully there should still be some 'fuzzy paper' as they call it left
-leave it to dry
-rub the rest off with a moist cloth (i find that using a damp cotton bud (q-tip) is best and doesnt smudge the image so much
-when all the surface stuff is off leave it to dry again
-put a teeny bit off the gunk back on the image to seal it, get a paint brush and paint it on.
-leave it to dry for 4 days before you wash it, then you can get to work with the stain remover for all the smudged bits.
Thank you everyone and thanks for putting up with me as I know fuck all about custom printing ect..
they turn out alright, not wonderful though
however i was not. the stuff i was talking about does not look good on any colour other than white, unless you want to start painting around the edges of it all.
~print mirror image
~cut out
~iron on
simple!:)
iv used epson stuff cos iv got epson printer+i find it transfers ok as long as u kinda peel as u go, so peel off straight after ironed a certain bit or it will re-stick.not v gd on dark colours but is gd on light colours+i have found it lasts well too:D
Probably best for square images like photos or text on a background rather than more intricate things, but it seemed to look OK even with vast ammounts of just the transfer paper stuff.
Would include a photo but I cant find the camera...
