    Printable Vinyls

    Hi all.
    I'm just setting up what I hope will be a lucrative little business. I want to do sublimation t shirts and mugs along with vehicle decals etc. My question is this.....sublimation t shirts tend to be white (or very light) and polyester. Would printing onto vinyl and heat pressing onto a t shirt give a good finished product? Would this allow me to do any colour t shirt? You help and advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Regards
    Dave

    Hi Davs

    do you mean using a print and cut machine?

    i think depending on the way the vinyl has been cut, it will give a sticker feel.

    have a look at the oki White toner printer,

    thanks

    Or try JetPro Opaque 3g transfer paper from Yolo. You can print with sublimation inks as well as ordinary inkjet inks. You'd need to do some test washes.

    Thanks for that. Steep learning curve ahead I guess :)
