<< I don't know if I posted about this before or not, but my son and I ironed
on tshirt transfers on his birthday a year ago October 16 - so 1 1/2 years
ago. He still has the shirt, it has been washed so many times the shirt is
worn out, but the transfers are still very clear. It has been washed in
bleached many times - he's a very active boy and white attracts dirt!>>

Wow you got to have a super shirt transfer there!
I tried all the brands of transfer parer Conde, Valentine, Avery, and others.
And the new jettrans papers.
They all faded very quickly like the first 5 washes! Even in cold water
If the shirt you have is 1 1/2 years old it could not have been some the "new
improved transfer papers" I tried
Could you please tell us if this transfer was printed on an Epson?
Some Laser copy transfers will last forever but I never knew a Epson printed
trahsfer to last as long as you son's shirt?
If by chance you know where you bought the paper this would be great
information.
By the way there is a lot of new development in sublimation printing.
sublimation transfers will out last the shirt and print on Epson printers!
There are a few new players taking on Sawgrass for sublimation inks.
Sawgrass is charging $25,000 a gallon for the sublimation inks they sell! Do
the math on the price they charge and the ink supplied ( small amount per
cartridge) it will shock you!
As you could guess other folks can supply better inks for less than $25,000 a
gallon ( talk about a rip off) and still manage to make a profit.

They have the June issue all about digital transfer sources
