ive a few questions about this
there are 2 ways its done

the hot method and cold method

i went to a place today that did vinal(sp) lettering since thats what is on jerseys

and he said that the hot method can not be done on paintball jerseys because of the fabrics (mostly polyester)
he said that it would melt the fabric

is this true?

are all jerseys done with the cold vinal(sp)

i just want to know

cliffio...

i was lookin into lettering too...ran into the same problem youre finding...someone suggested something to me...

get a big "patch" of non-polyester...heat transfer your letters on that, then sew on the patch to your jersey...it doesnt have to be denim or anything, just cotton...

course, if you have an intricate jersey, it might really screw up the design by covering too much of it.

lemme know what/how you do it...

i wanna find out where i can get one of the new dye subliminated jerseys from smart parts where they have tons of patterns, and designs u can choose or u can send them ur own and they'll make u a super spiffy jersey! (i really like the new AA's jerseys and Strange has some ok jerseys too)

Just find a place, I found one in Canada

As for not being able to heat transfer onto Paintball jeresys, they must not know how to do it, because I've had a few done
