Hey guys. Can anyone tell me if there are colour t-shirts available for sublimation on the market? I can only find white and have customer requests for coloured ones? Thanks.
Another question. Do the press marks on T-shirts go with the first wash? Or should they be ironed? THanks

Press marks can be avoided if you rip the edges of the paper to avoid a straight edge when pressing (a bit like feathering).

Maybe these people can help. http://www.printequipment.de/
They are one of the biggest suppliers in Mainland Europe to the subli trade. And ( if Malta is in the Euro ) no money exchange problems either.

The t-shirts are clearly Vapor ( same as Transfer Press ). I'm suprised as a Vapor stockist they don't have to mention the brand name.

I currently am using Xpress T's. Have pressed a couple but seen that the heat-press leaves a mark where it was pressed. This is what I would like to know if it either washes away or not? Or if one would need to iron it afterwards to remove? Thanks for your help guys.
