Avery Printable Heat Transfer Paper for Dark Fabrics - 8.5" x 11" Inkjet Printer Iron On Transfers (5 Sheets) - Perfect for DIY T-Shirts, Hoodies & Custom Apparel Projects

Easy to use once you get all the materials. Fortunately, we just broke down an old desk, so I used a piece of the particle board to iron on top of. It fit perfectly. That’s the only issue I’d have with this - would be finding a wood-like surface to iron on top of. Otherwise, directions are clear and simple. Print design, cut, peel side that’s face down, iron, cool, peel top side and you’re done! Colors came out well on red, blue, green and yellow canvas bags I was ironing. I even accidentally started to iron without peeling the bottom side - realized my mistake fairly quickly and was able to pull it apart and still use it! Wasn’t perfect but at least it wasn’t wasted.My craft projectsThe best i’ve tried so far. Lost alittle bit of brightness after I washed it and it was wrinkled alittle bit. But the design held up. It’s more expensive but it’s worth it.These work really well, fourth time we are using this! A few tips for you, especially since the instructions leave a bit to be desired.1) WASH THE SHIRT FIRSTI forgot about the washing of the shirts ahead of time. The first time we used these the shirts are still hanging in there after about two years and multiple washes. The next two times we forgot to wash the shirts, the iron ons looked great but are peeling a bit already.2) DO NOT PRINT IN REVERSE, THIS IS NOT AN IRON ON TRANSFER! THINK OF IT MORE LIKE AN IRON ON PATCH!Meaning: What you print out is what you will see EXACTLY on your shirt. The ink does not transfer to your shirt. if you're not sure what that means, do you know those little kid toy tattoos that you peel, apply to skin, and then put a wet sponge on the back of the tattoo to get the ink to "transfer" to the skin (and it does it in reverse of what you see). That is a transfer. This is more like an iron on patch, but instead of a patch, it is what you print out on the printer sheet.3) PEEL THE BACKING FIRST!Because the "iron on patch" will be stuck to the surface it is on. If you do not peel the backing, then your print will be forever sealed to the backing. You want it sealed onto the shirt. Fortunately, the back of the sheet has numerous pieces on it, not just one big piece, so I was able to cut the shape of the heart on my transfer and still was able to peel it quite easily.4) Use the white sheet included in between the iron and the printable.I think otherwise you may discolor your shirt with all the heat from the iron5) 3 minutes, not a lot of pressure, repeatedly going over the entire printable esp the edgesI did not use anything close to a lot of pressure, I think that also may discolor your fabric. Just fairly light even pressure over the course of 3 minutes, not staying in any one place too long, over and over and over6) Let the surface cool down a bit after each ironMostly because otherwise the next shirt will get hot when you put it down and it's waiting and you don't want to accidentally have your iron on printable get heat sealed any little bit before you apply the iron. Just to be on the safe sideGreat product!!!His favorite character is a Hulk so I put this on a t-shirt for him for his birthdayThis was my first time using something like this, but either way the quality is amazing!!Remember this is not a transparent transfer paper and you have to cut out all white spacesPrint and picture quality fine. Struggled a bit with application because I am not very skilled with an iron. Finally got the hang of it and friends were impressed with the resultant t-shirts.Didn't realize this, disappointed, instant 5 stars.I initially did not like 03279 sheets, but once you get used to them they work fine. These sheets, with the same model number have a different package. IMHO they are the identical product...no idea why the original and the new are sold alongside each other at different prices. I find that with my HP inkjet I have to use ordinary paper setting, not a matte photo-paper setting, or the ink bleeds all over the place. The instructions list printer settings for my HP that it does not have. Thus, I ruined two of the five sheets before I found a paper setting that worked. I take off a star on account of this. MY printer is an HP 8610, perhaps one of the most widely sold on the planet. The problem might be that it is being driven by Ubuntu (Linux), not Windoze. But this is becoming also quite main stream, so I'e expect a big outfit like Avery to cover this in their instructions.Printing use and quality - easy and great!Transfer use and quality - simple and great!The lasting quality of any of these iron-on transfers - meh. Washed inside-out on cold and hung to dry, I can see the colour starting to fade after only a few washes. And goodness forbid a cat walks on your chest while you're wearing one of the shirts, any claw will damage the finish.These did print and transfer better than any off-brand I've used in the past and I was really hoping they'd last longer, too. Pretty disappointed, I dread to think I might have to get a proper T-shirt transfer press down the road, the transfers for those aren't cheap, either.Finally got a chance to try these and wrecked my first 1 but the 2nd one went well. Take your time, read the instructions and do exactly as they say and you will be fine. For the price there could be a few more in the package. If buying for white only they come with more and I am not sure what the difference really would be between them.What they don’t tell you in the description is that there are two wavey lines separating the page. No idea why they would make it this way?? It should be a full solid sheet but it’s not. Stupid. My ink jet printer wouldn’t print out without weird lines so I couldn’t even iron mine on to see the end result. Good luck though!
