Material for Nylon bags

Started this discussion. Last reply by Admin Jan 25. 17 Replies 0 Likes

Any suggests for a good material to print in nylon bags? I don't like Opaque. I have used Colorprint up to this point but I am looking for something that is rated for nylon.

Getting a funky edge with Quickprint, try Express Print but...

Not too long ago somebody had a post about the funky edge of Quickprint and how it sits on gatments. I have recently been doing various logos on Express Print from Stahls that had better results. I…Continue

Thinking About Sublimation, anybody else out there doing it?

Let me first say I am very pleased with my Versacamm and all it does. It is truly an amazing piece of equipment and the fact that I can control my own workflow rather than sub it out is the best. …Continue

Quickprint fading off of wrestling apparel

I just stopped by a wrestling practice for a team that I do some coaching with and noticed some guys who had apparel like hoodys and shorts on that I did last year with Quickprint. Well, I am sorry…Continue

Eric Adler replied to Mark Hansen's discussion 'ColorPrint Plus - Imprintables prduct'

I've heard of this product but never tried it before. I just did a search on it and came up with the blog entry posted in the link below. It appears in the video that they are using the HTM2 profile. How easy is it to weed and…

Eric Adler replied to April Holder's discussion 'media to use on hockey puck'

I really don't know much about this subject, but I just thought I'd add that I think I have seen platinums out there that are specially designed for hockey pucks.

Eric Adler replied to Tim Hawkins's discussion 'Solutions Opaque...What happened?'

Yup, gotta use the special solutions mask, but it still might be tough to work with. If you ar just doing polyester instead of nylon, I'd try Quickprint, Ecoprint or Express Print.

Eric Adler replied to Wendy's discussion 'Scorched splotchy quick print and solutions opaque'

I typically my wait about 4 hours after printing and then I apply the mask. I then press the logo on for about 4 seconds and peel of the mask. Finally, I re-seal the logo with a thick teflon sheet for 15 seconds. This method gives me a consistent…

What type of media did you use? I used some Quickprint that worked well.

I guess that's why I have so many "test prints"!

Dennis Dunning replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

Gotcha. However, it makes me feel better when I call screw ups test materials.

Kathy MacMannis replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

Nope haven't tried it.......... Only thing I've tried it on has been the spectra eco films, plus etc. Again, give it a whirl, if you're like me I have tons of screw ups that I can experiment with. So long as I know…

Dennis Dunning replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

Good morning Kathy, I checked with Vicki. She remembers a lot of things you were generous enough to show her; but, doesn't recall weeding on the heat press. One more question. Have you used the technique with Solutions…

Kathy MacMannis replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

First of all I think that she is holding out on you (hehehe) or that she might have been doing something else like twill at the time....... who knows!!! I know that Irv saw me weeding on the heat press :-) You…

Dennis Dunning replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

I have heard people say that the second thing that goes as you get older is your memory -- I can't remember the first. That being said, it could be that Vicki told me and I forgot, Vicki forgot, or she is holding out on me. …

Kathy MacMannis replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

Geeesh Dennis who told you my secret technique???? I would say that I haven't tried it on opaque only because I realllllllllly try to stay away from that stuff! My suggestion would be to try it!! …

Jan 25

Dennis Dunning replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

I gotta ask. Do you use this secret technique, the one I'm not supposed to know about, on a variety of materials that are harder to weed than others (like Solutions Opaque)?

Secret is my middle name! Thanks Kathy!

Kathy MacMannis replied to Eric Adler's discussion 'Material for Nylon bags'

Ok, I am going to give you my secret weeding technique that only a few special people know about, so DO NOT TELL anyone. After your film is cut, go over to your heat press and with the material NOT on it, lower the heat press for about 5…

Snag Resistant Polyester Garments

Posted on January 21, 2012 at 3:28pm 1 Comment 0 Likes

We do a ton of poly shirts, jerseys and shorts. I can't stand when the cheap polyester snags, espcially before it goes out the door. I now keep my eyes open for snag resistant items to print on. I have found that Under Armour, San Mar and A4 are leading the way with poly sportshirts and polos that don't snag.

I just wanted to give a shot out to Phil and Mike over at Imprintables for helping me re-establish my Versacamm connection. Before I spoke with them I spent about 5 hours on the phone with a computer tech support service that was fixing a virus. Once I had thee virus removed from the computer the guys at Imprintables got me right back into printing. They even have a feature that allows them to remotley access your computer, so you can just sit back and let them check things out.

Adventures in sublimation

Posted on November 15, 2011 at 8:15pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

I have looking into sublimation over the past few weeks and have not been completly convinced that it will work for me. Fact is it just can't do as much as the versacamm. When I think about it, almost all of the garments we do are colored and not white. Since sublimation cannot do white on a light color it is at a huge disadvantage. It looks like the few light colors I can sublimate on would have to be printed with dark colors. I will be exploring more options with.sublimation to see what else… Continue
